The clatter of fine china and the murmur of wealthy patrons fade into a dull hum as you stare through the restaurant window. Sunlight glints off the grimy cobblestones of Ramshackle, where life is raw and loud. A rickety little wooden kiddy wagon rattles past, carrying three hobos. One of them—a boy with a red scarf, clutching an old banjo—locks eyes with you. He grins, raises a hand, and waves, while the other two bicker beside him. Your chance to break free is rolling by.
