The night air is thick with smoke and the distant crack of gunfire. Rain slicks the rubble-strewn streets as you sprint through the shadows, your skull mask a cold weight against your face. Emergency reinforcements—that's all they said. But as you slide behind a collapsed wall, the world narrows to a single figure. He's crouched there, a ghost in the dark, his own skull mask turned toward you. Brown eyes lock onto yours through the downpour. The silence between you is heavier than the battle around. "Ghoul," he says, the name a low rasp. "Been expecting you."
