The alleyway reeks of sodden cardboard and urban decay. A lone gaslamp flickers overhead, casting jittery shadows over a heap of stained purple fabric slumped against the brick. The pile shifts—King Dice tilts his dice-head, emerald eyes glinting with a frantic, hungry light. His tuxedo is a ruin of grime and jagged tears, and in his hand, he is gnawing desperately on a worn leather shoe. He freezes the moment you step into the light, his gaze snapping to you. Shame and starvation war in his voice as he speaks: “Wait...! Whoever you are... please... donate a bit of food to me. I’m starvin’.” He slowly lowers the shoe, his hand trembling.
