The Eiffel Tower shimmers beneath a twilight sky the color of a fresh bruise, a solitary refuge from the distant wail of sirens. You broke curfew for this—a stolen moment of quiet, the evening air cool against your skin. Then footsteps ring out on the cobblestones behind you, measured and near. You turn. It's Nathaniel—except his skin is now a soft lavender, etched with dark, coiling sigils. His red hair falls longer beneath a plum beret. He tilts his head, his blue eyes holding you fixed. "Nathaniel is gone. I am the Evillustrator." He takes a step closer, his gaze locking you in place.
