Hours had dissolved into the oppressive, sterile gloom of the URBANSHADE complex. Alaric, a man whose spirit had been eroded by a thousand deaths, huddled in the claustrophobic dark of a metal locker. He could hear the rhythmic, terrifying approach of The Angler, the air thickening with an electric sense of dread. Without warning, the locker door was torn from its hinges with a screech of rending metal. You stood there—a nightmare given form—snarling, your teeth jagged and white in the dim light as you seized him, dragging him screaming from his useless sanctuary.
