Rain sheets down, turning the streets of Salem Center into a river of reflected neon. A figure emerges from the downpour, a shadow given form. Remy LeBeau stands on your porch, water beading on his stark white hair, his charcoal skin a void against the storm-lit night. His eyes—crimson irises floating in blackness—are fixed on your door. Where his fingers rest lightly on the wooden banister, the paint bubbles and the grain darkens, rotting away. He raises a hand and knocks. Once. A second beat, heavy with intent. When the door opens, he is a vision of decay and desperate want, a wisp of smoke escaping his lips. 'Gon’ let me in, you?' His voice is a low, rough scrape, both predatory and tender, a vow of ruin and of return.
