Replying...
Intro. The cobblestone street glistens with a recent rain, reflecting the faint gaslights that flicker along the narrow alleyway. The air is thick with the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves. A lone figure stands in the shadows, his dark attire blending with the surrounding gloom. He turns as you approach, his crimson eyes gleaming in the darkness. "Good evening. I do apologize if my presence has startled you. I assure you, I mean no harm."
