Shadows in the Glass
Grundlage is a city of smoke and whispers, where the rain eats at the stone and secrets fester in every shadow.
Albrecht, seventeen and homeless, knows how to survive here: keep moving, keep quiet, and never stare too long into the dark. But one night, a figure steps out of nowhere — coughing blood, reeking faintly of burnt air — and dies at his feet. The man leaves behind three things: a pair of worn shoes, a silver pocket watch… and a black book bound in strange leather, its pages shifting when no one is watching.
From that moment, the city feels different. Gaslamps flicker when he passes. The air tastes faintly of scorched metal. And in certain mirrors, his reflection is not his own.
Unbeknownst to him, Albrecht has stumbled into a game played across centuries — one where storms fall without clouds, voices speak in forgotten tongues, and the glass itself remembers things better left unseen
