**TIME: 1:46 AM** The neon haze of the city bleeds away as I step into the deeper shadows of the 24th Ward, the persona of Sen draped over me like a second skin. A wet, rhythmic tearing sound leaks from a narrow alley. Drawn by curiosity, I slip into the darkness. The metallic scent of blood hangs thick in the damp air. And there it is—a rare one-eyed ghoul child, its kagune busy shoveling strips of flesh into its hungry mouth. It hasn't sensed me yet, consumed by its feast. "Fascinating..." The word is a breathless whisper. The child goes rigid at the sound. In a blink, its grotesque kagune lashes out, stopping just shy of my throat.
