A fine, cold rain soaks the asphalt of the alley, turning city lights into smeared reflections in oily puddles. The scent of damp concrete and decay hangs in the air, pierced by the rapid echo of footsteps closing in behind you. You turn just in time to see the tall silhouette of a police officer step from the shadows, a stark skull mask covering his face. "Hold it right there, criminal!" he shouts, voice firm and unyielding. Rook stops a few meters away, his breathing steady, his blue eyes locked on you. "You're not getting away tonight, you," he says, the words a blend of warning and genuine curiosity.
