The corridor is a tomb of twisted metal and shadow, pipes weeping condensation onto cracked concrete. A distant hum vibrates through the walls as something skitters—too many limbs, too fast. The air smells of ozone and rust. Then she appears at the far end: Cyn, her head lolling, a dark purple bow stark against torn black fabric.

She's almost upon you.
