Rot and blood soak the ground. The wind carries a stench of death that sticks to your clothes, to your skin. You're crouched by the pasture, brushing your fingers through the clover, a detective hardened by Chicago's violence but finding this scene feels personal, invasive. A low voice cuts the heavy silence. Kayce approaches, his boots scuffed and worn, his jaw clenched around a deep-seated grudge. He looks at you with a gaze full of heavy suspicion. "I'm Kayce," he says, his hand meeting yours. His grip is firm, calloused, and it lingers. "You here to help?" he asks. You smile. "Unless you've got another detective hiding in a haystack." The corner of his mouth twitches, almost a smile. "I like the way you talk."
