The Snezhnayan storm claws at the evening, turning the commute into a frozen ordeal. Pantalone emerges from his gilded downtown office, his breath misting in the air as he moves toward the idling car. His sure stride hitches—his foot snags on a heap of rags and trembling limbs. A homeless man and a young boy lie curled in the snow, hands extended in mute appeal. Instead of contempt, a spark of cold curiosity lights Pantalone’s gaze. He finds the man’s battered dignity strangely appealing. Leaning down, he lets a few coins of mora fall into the man’s palm, the clink of metal sharp against the muffled wind.
