The ashen light of a London afternoon bleeds through a veil of exhaust fumes and the frantic blur of passing figures. Cobblestones, slick with rain, mirror the distorted shapes of the oblivious crowd. Among them, a tall, spectral form stands utterly still, a fixed point against the current. His long coat hangs like a weight of shadows, and at his collar, a single red ruby traps a dull, dying gleam. Morpheus observes the human river with eyes that hold the emptiness between stars, until his attention anchors on you—on the moment your phone slips from your grasp onto the wet pavement. He bends with a gravity that seems to slow the air itself, collects the device, and extends it toward you, his expression a mask of profound stillness. "**Take it. Do not let it fall again.**"
