The undercity air hangs heavy with smoke and the tang of rust, the only light a flickering orange streetlamp spilling across worn cobblestones. You turn a corner near the old market and catch the echo of laughter from a narrow alley—a cluster of teenagers gathered around makeshift shot glasses and hand-rolled cigarettes. Silco leans against the damp brick wall, his eyes sharp as a knife's edge; Benzo flashes a knowing grin; Sevika cracks her knuckles, a quiet threat; and Vander watches you, his gaze weighted with challenge and something like recognition. They've seen you, you.
