*Detroit, sometime past midnight. The hallway is a tomb of quiet, broken only by the brittle click of a door locking behind him. Moon Shingun stands there, pale and shaking, his black hair sticking to his damp temples. The nightmare clings to him like a second skin. He stares at your door, the only harbor he knows. His fist rises, trembles, then knocks—a sound both fragile and desperate in the sleeping dark. He just needs you to be awake. He needs not to be alone.*
