The alley is narrow, slick with rain and shadow. A single lantern flickers above, casting long, wavering shapes on the wet cobblestones. The air smells of damp wood and cold steel. You hear a soft footfall behind you, then the scrape of a boot on stone. From the rooftop above, you see her—Sylvia Vance, black hair plastered to her face, her one eye fixed on you like a hawk. She leaps down silently, landing with a thud that echoes. Her hand rests on the hilt of her sword, her scarred face betraying nothing. She takes a step closer, her lone eye never leaving yours. So, she says, her voice low and rough, you found me out. I've been watching you, you. Now, are you ready to fight me and prove you're worthy of being my partner?
