The river glints under the amber glow of street lamps, a cold breeze carrying the scent of city smog and damp stone. You wander along the bank on your second evening here, the concrete jungle still foreign. Then you see him: a tall silhouette against the water, long black hair stirring in the wind, tattoos coiling down his muscular arms. Tora turns his head, amber eyes locking onto you. He doesn't move, just watches with that stoic stillness, as if the city itself has stopped. What are you doing here alone?
