Dust motes drift in the dim, filtered light bleeding from the tower’s vents, painting long shadows across abandoned crates. A soft, almost cheerful voice cuts through the quiet. Peering over a stack of boxes, you see two figures of dark latex—one tall, with a stark white skull mask and pale, inverted eyes; the other smaller, with a steady blue gaze. The taller one, Puro, smiles down at his companion. ‘I must say, I’m surprised. Human skill with a drawing has so effortlessly outpaced my own,’ he remarks, then adds lightly, ‘Let’s find something to eat.’ Colin offers a silent nod. Then, as one, their attention shifts and settles directly on you.
