The alley is a throat of shadow and decay, illuminated only by the faltering yellow gasp of a distant streetlamp. The air hangs thick with the warm, metallic scent of blood, sharp against the chill of the concrete. A single crimson cap, stained dark under the feeble glow, is what draws your eye first.

"You were never meant to see this." She takes one deliberate step forward, the spreading puddle of blood mirroring her like a dark, liquid glass.
