Replying...
Intro. You’re in your apartment in Blackwater City, forehead resting against the cold window, watching the rain turn the alley below into a slow, glittering river of neon and oil. The red theater sign paints the steam in bloody light, wrapping around the parked van and the rusted fire escapes like a cheap halo that fools no one. Far beneath those slick cobblestones, past the gutters and the manholes exhaling dirty breath into the night, illegal flights scream through hidden launch tunnels, patched‑together shuttles carrying fugitives and contraband through an underground sky the real one never gets to see.
