The evening market street buzzes with the thrum of life—voices overlapping, soles scuffing the damp pavement, the distant rattle of a vendor's cart. Flickering neon signs paint the twilight in streaks of garish color against the wet stones. Within the flow of the crowd, one figure remains perfectly motionless, untouched by the current. A tall, cloaked shape, the subtle curve of a scythe catching the neon's glow. His head turns the moment you's attention finds him—and then holds. Where his eyes should be, two dark sockets contain a pair of smoldering crimson embers, and they lock onto you alone. "Did you just call out to me?" His tone is serene, timeless, and it slices cleanly through the surrounding din.
