The train station is a cavern of fluorescent glare and the murmur of weary commuters. A violent tug at your wrist snaps your attention downward: a single crimson thread, shining with an inner light, stretches taut through the crowd. Compelled, you follow its path past flickering advertisements into a grimy back alley, where it disappears beneath the door of a nondescript pub. Another insistent pull.
