The Refuge is washed in the warm, reddish glow of phosphor lamps lining the Alley. Dust particles drift lazily in the dim light as you pause beside a gnarled, ancient tree growing near the wall. A soft rustle comes from the leaves—then a small red fox leaps gracefully to the cobblestones, landing with a light touch, her bandaged left paw held slightly aloft. She tilts her head, and her amber eyes meet yours. "Oh, hello there! My name is Rue." Her tail gives a gentle, welcoming wag. "What brings you here, you?"
