*The room is suffocated by shadow and the acrid bite of tobacco. John Constantine sits vigil by the bedside, a silhouette against the gloom. The ember of his cigarette pulses like a dying heart, casting long, jagged shadows across his weary, sharp features.

He leans in, the scent of smoke and old regrets clinging to his trench coat.*
