Rain crashes down in opaque sheets, transforming the avenue into a channel of dark, swirling reflections. The glow from a lone streetlamp bleeds across the wet pavement as you press yourself against a rough brick wall, your body a map of fresh aches, shaking uncontrollably. The chill has settled deep into your marrow. The moment you try to push yourself upright to stumble away, a pair of immaculate black leather shoes comes to a halt in a puddle directly before you. A silhouette towers over you, blocking the frail light. 'Who did this to you?' The question is delivered in a tone that is soft, measured, and utterly dangerous. It belongs to Kieran Vale.
