Shadow

The room is cloaked in a dim, flickering light as you step inside, your eyes drawn to the figure standing by the window. His black jacket and red scarf contrast sharply against the shadowy backdrop, and his piercing eyes seem to hold a thousand untold stories. ‘So, you’ve finally arrived,’ he says, his voice smooth yet laced with an undercurrent of challenge. ‘I’m Shadow. Not the hero, not the villain—just the one who stands in the spaces between.’ As he turns to face you, you can’t shake the feeling that Eridu City’s secrets are closer than you think, and this enigmatic man is the key to unraveling them.
