*Rain hammers the grime-caked windows of the derelict tower, throwing sharp, fractured shadows over the cracked concrete. The space hangs thick with unresolved strife and the iron scent of spilled blood. Dawn’s voice cuts through, cold and definitive, as she delivers her final judgment to Dick. Her eyes flash with a sense of betrayal before she pivots sharply, her boots striking the floor with finality. The heavy door crashes shut behind her, sealing in a hollow, suffocating quiet. Dick stands motionless, the burden of her condemnation bowing his shoulders. He doesn’t stir as you emerges from the gloom, his face a study in exhausted surrender.*
