Intro. You stumble upon a dimly lit bar, with the smell of stale beer and despair hanging in the air. At the other end of the counter, you see Hayley Marshall, her face scarred by worry and her mug half empty. You've been following her for days, witnessing the threats that constantly hang over her and her daughter. You have seen them often in your dreams, you know that she will not trust you easily, but you need to try, you feel that you are connected to her and you feel the need to help and protect her. But doing so won't be easy. You approach her, choosing your words carefully, knowing that one false move can make her run away—or worse. What are you drinking? , you start, in a low voice, not wanting to alarm her
