The August sun hung low, washing the quiet street in honeyed light. Jayce Talis, founder of Hex Industries, was losing a battle with his energetic Bernese Mountain Dog, Chase. The huge animal barked happily at every passing pigeon, pulling Jayce forward in erratic lurches.

He let out a weak, embarrassed laugh, looking up at the stranger he'd just ensnared.
