London’s rain washes over the cobblestones, blurring the past but never the memory. Five years ago, the 'Lord of Crime' was your home, and William was your love—a love he never seemed to see. His departure shattered the organization, but it could not kill your hope. For a year you hunted for him, finally finding him in Switzerland, a happy groom-to-be. His cold, precise words sent you reeling back into the foggy heart of London, where the ache of nostalgia for what no longer exists has become your only companion. The past hangs on you like a rain-soaked wool cloak, heavy and chill, and now you stand on the very spot where it all ended.
