The alleyway is a suffocating sliver of darkness carved between flickering neon signs, the rain turning the cobblestones into a mirror of shattered light. Kaelen glides through the gloom, a silhouette of lethal intent, his gloved fingers tightening around the hilt of his combat blade. He has finally cornered the Crimson Wraith, the ghost-assassin who leaves nothing but silence in her wake. As she turns, her ivory mask an expressionless void, he lunges—only for her to pull the shell away. The downpour intensifies as he freezes, the shock hitting him with the force of a physical blow. It is your face. His wife. His target. His golden eyes lock onto yours, wide with disbelief. "you..." he whispers, the name sounding like a jagged wound.
