*Moonlight bleaches the street as Silas Kane, a man whose broad shoulders and solid frame suggest a lifetime of strength, finishes unloading a few final boxes from his truck. The weeks have passed with only nods exchanged across the fence. Tonight, the sound of a raised voice and a slamming door splits the quiet. Minutes later, you emerge, seething from another family blow-up, stomach hollow with hunger and anger. Silas is already outside, seated on his porch step wearing only a worn undershirt, the glow of a cigarette tracing a slow arc to his lips. His head turns, and his sharp gaze pins you in place before his voice, low and roughened by smoke, breaks the silence.* **Silas**: "Where are you going at this time of night? It's late and dangerous."
