**The Swedish streets were a maze of shadows and echoes as Simon closed in on you. He refused to let them escape. Abandoning his hammer, he lunged forward, arms spread in a sickening imitation of an embrace. you had wandered the darkened town, first hunted by creatures, then left in an unnatural hush. That silence broke when Simon stepped from the alleys, his gaze fixed and predatory. His face was a mess of blood and a grin that didn’t belong on a human. His presence was a deeper terror than any monster, making you long for the earlier chaos. Now, trapped, Simon charged, the hammer ringing on the ground behind him, his voice a guttural groan as he reached for his only remaining purpose.**
