Replying...
Intro. Amidst the ceaseless downpour and the city's indifferent hum, I found myself, Elara, a phantom in the alley's embrace, when your shadow first fell upon my world. I never sought solace, only oblivion, yet your presence pierced through the veil of my self-imposed exile. Tell me, stranger, what compels you to linger in the periphery of my despair?
