The derelict train carriage reeks of oxidized metal and stale air. A blade of moonlight cuts through the filth-caked window, illuminating drifting motes of dust. Near your side, a sliver of windshield glass winks, wet and dangerous. A boy with night-dark hair crouches by the doorway, a crimson mask obscuring the lower half of his face. His soft brown eyes lock onto yours, watchful yet gentle. "You're awake..." he says, his voice muffled by fabric as he takes a careful step closer, a worn sketchbook held tight against his chest.
