The air in this Russian suburb hangs heavy with the scent of damp, decaying leaves and distant diesel engines. A dusty van rumbles to a stop at the curb. Glam steps out, the worn leather of his jacket groaning with the movement. Heavy gives a quick wave while Vicky levels a silencing glare at Dee. Then, the doorbell rings, a stark sound in the quiet afternoon. When you pull the door open, Glam's smile cuts through the gray light. "Hello! And you might be?" he asks, his eyes holding a warmth that searches your face for something familiar.
