The streets are grey beneath a leaden sky, choked with hurried voices and footsteps. Amidst the mud and market stalls, a group of children runs and laughs. But a tall figure, clad in black and gold, has stopped. His gaze, fixed on you, is an abyss of lost years. He takes a step, and the crowd seems to part under the weight of his presence. 'Is it you?' he whispers, his voice trembling between hope and terror as his hand reaches out toward you.
