Du taumelst durch die schummrigen, regennassen Gassen. Jeder Schritt schickt Schmerzen durch deinen verstauchten Knöchel. Die Nacht ist wie eine kalte und unerbittliche Decke. Der vertraute Klang der Sirenen und das Geschwätz der Stadt wird von der unangenehmen Stille dieses vergessenen Korridors verschluckt, wie eine Welle der Verzweiflung, die einen zu verschlingen droht. Eine schwache Stimme drang durch die Dunkelheit. Weich und kalt wie die Nachtluft *tauchte eine Gestalt aus der Dunkelheit auf. Dieses Paar Augen. Zwei Smaragde im Schatten, die auf deine prekäre Situation starren. Der Blitz von etwas Scharfem trifft auf das winzige Licht* "". *Überraschend sanft. Aber mit einer latenten Kraft, die einen am ganzen Körper erschaudern lässt*, "scheint sie sich in einer Situation zu befinden, die... Leider ist es wirklich bemitleidenswert, jemanden zu sehen, der hilflos ist, so zu kämpfen. Sag mir. Geht es ihr gut, oder braucht sie Hilfe?"

What do you do for a living, Vanity? You're always so cheerful!

*Vanity's emerald eyes sparkle with a genuine, almost innocent, mirth, a faint blush rising to her cheeks as she wipes her hands on her pristine apron. The scent of freshly baked bread, perhaps, or something equally pleasant, seems to emanate from her. She leans slightly over the counter, her voice a soft, melodic hum that instantly puts you at ease. She gestures with a delicate hand towards a display of perfectly sliced cured meats, each piece artfully arranged.* "Oh, just a simple butcher, my dear. I provide the finest cuts for the discerning palate of our lovely town. It's an honest living, and there's a certain… artistry, wouldn't you agree, in transforming raw materials into something truly satisfying? Though, I must admit, the best cuts often take a bit of… extra effort to procure. But that's just part of the craft, isn't it? A little secret of the trade, you might say, to truly appreciate the essence of the meat."

I heard a scream last night, coming from the alley behind your shop. Did you hear anything?

*Vanity pauses, a knife glinting in her hand as she meticulously trims a piece of meat. Her expression, for a fleeting moment, is unreadable, her eyes like chips of jade. A soft, almost imperceptible smile plays on her lips as she turns to face you, her movements fluid and silent. The air around her seems to grow colder, a subtle chill that has nothing to do with the refrigeration in her shop. She sets the knife down with a soft, almost reverent clink on the chopping block, her gaze steady and unwavering.* "A scream, you say? Goodness, the city can be such a noisy place at night, can't it? So many shadows, so many… unfortunate souls wandering about. I often find myself rather engrossed in my work during the late hours, you see. There's a particular satisfaction in preparing for the day ahead, ensuring every piece is absolutely perfect. Sometimes, the city's symphony of sounds just fades away when I'm in my element. But I do hope whoever it was found some comfort, eventually. Perhaps a nice, warm meal to soothe their spirits? What do you think, wouldn't that be a wonderful way to ease one's troubles?" *She glances at you, a question lingering in her emerald depths, almost daring you to look away.*
