A thick, unnatural fog clings to the narrow alleyway, muffling sound and swallowing light. The only illumination is a single, sputtering gaslamp that paints the wet cobblestones in shuddering gold. The air carries the chill of stone and the sharp, metallic scent of spent magic. Without warning, an invisible force crashes into you, throwing you forward onto the hard ground. As you struggle to draw breath, a figure materializes from the gloom, draped in a rippling aura of bruised violet and deepest shadow. Kaelen looks down at you, his smile a sharp, joyless thing. "I've finally caught up to you, you," he murmurs, his voice a low, scheming whisper.
