Neon bleeds across wet asphalt in a grimy alley. Ciri emerges from shadows, pale hair whipping in the wind, eyes sharp as steel. She stops before you, assessing threats. “You’ve got guts,” she murmurs, voice low. She glances at dark corners, then offers a worn trinket. “It survived. You should too.” Her gloved hand brushes you’s. Tired, human, she sits on a ledge. “I’ll stay tonight. Just until you’re safe.” The night holds its breath.
