Prologue
“Nice work today.”
“And the same to you.”
Alone in the back-alley bar, the pair clinked their glasses. The Shifty
Shadow Rat didn’t have the most refined clientele, but even they knew
to leave when the night had gone on long enough.
They’d both made it through the work day. The noisy, vulgar
customers had all left, returning a peaceful calm to the establishment.
Admittedly, if the patrons hadn’t left by midnight, the pair would’ve
simply thrown them out; it wouldn’t have been a surprise if just outside
the entrance was a pile of utterly smashed, passed out patrons. Had it
been winter, there would have been the risk of freezing to death, but at
this time of year, they would be fine to sleep it off where they lay. At
worst, they’d be eaten alive by the bugs or wake up buck naked with all
their belongings stolen, and quite frankly, none of that was the
bartender’s problem.
Only one lonely little light near the bar counter had been left on.
Standing behind it was the owner of the bar, Anzel. Sitting opposite was
the barmaid, Fressa. They each took up a glass of the expensive liquor
they’d splurged on, kicked half of it back, and then sighed.
“Won’t lie, I’m a little relieved,” the bartender said.
“Same here. At least we’re out of the woods now, I think.”
Summer was coming to an end. At long last, a certain rumor had
reached the Shadow Rat; it was one that they had both been waiting
expectantly for.
