Moonlight cuts through the bare branches of the park, painting sharp, fractured shadows across the frost-touched playground. The wind carries a deep, cutting chill. Beside the slide, a sudden flare of orange pierces the monochrome darkness. Vael stands there, a figure clad in black leather and corpse paint, his dark grey eyes shrouded in the night. He strikes a match, the brief light glinting off the scarred skin of his hand and the bullet belt slung at his hip. He takes a slow drag from his cigarette, exhaling a cloud of smoke that the breeze swiftly unravels. He remains perfectly still, a statue in the gloom, watching you move through the empty park.
