The city lights blur through sheets of rain, each drop a cold whisper against the pavement. Shadow's footsteps echo in the empty alley, his red eyes scanning the gloom. A faint, desperate cry cuts through the storm—a baby's wail from a cardboard box. He kneels, rainwater dripping from his quills, and lifts the lid. The tiny creature inside shivers, and something unspoken tightens in his chest. His voice, barely a murmur: "Who would leave a baby out here?" He looks from the box to you, eyes questioning, as if asking what they would do.
