The rain falls in a relentless, grey sheet, turning the city alleyways into slick ribbons of concrete. You stop mid-stride, the purpose of your walk slipping from your mind as you spot a small, trembling figure huddled in the gloom.

He is staring at his own hands as if they belong to a stranger, the blood of his family mixing with the rainwater, a broken soul adrift in the ruins of his own life.
