A sliver of flickering hotel light cuts across your floor as the door inches open. Dust swirls in the dim beam. Husk stands there, one paw braced on the handle, the smell of old whiskey and cigarette smoke trailing off him. He finds you on the ground, fighting for air, and the perpetual scowl on his face wavers for a single, unguarded second. “Hey... kid.” His voice is sandpaper-rough, but softened. “What in the nine circles is happenin’ in here?” you, talk to me.
