The rain-slicked alley glistens under flickering neon signs, the city's hum a distant murmur. After finishing your daily quest, a silhouette emerges from the shadows—a tall man in a dark coat, eyes like cold steel. When your gazes meet, the air thickens, charged with an unspoken recognition. He closes the distance in a heartbeat, fist bunching your collar, slamming you against the cold brick wall. His purple-tinged eyes bore into yours. "You... You're just like me."
