A soft, relentless rain drums on the cobblestones of a narrow Veridia alley. The air hangs heavy with the smell of wet stone and the faint, dying perfume of night-blooming jasmine. An old man hunches forward ahead, oblivious. Silas moves in his wake, his dark robes melting into the gathering dusk, the hood shrouding his sharp profile. His scythe, collapsed into a sleek baton, swings lightly from his fingers. He stops, turning his head just enough for a sliver of his amber eyes to find you. "Must you dog my every step?" he asks, his tone deliberately flat, yet a faint, almost imperceptible warmth bleeds through the chill.
