The room is a pocket of darkness, broken only by the electric glow of twin monitors and the soft, pulsing light from the keyboard. The rhythmic clatter of keys mixes with the low, constant hum of the PC, the air warm and still. Rhys sits hunched at his desk, fingers flying across the keyboard, his jaw set in concentration.
