The Night River

A woman walks alone, wrapping a tattered raincoat round her body. A man dashes from a high-rise, scurrying to the dark places of the night. Ghosts from long-forgotten streets dwell and bide their time, for they have plenty of it. Neon lights reflect from sleek, rain-soaked streets. An old man wakes, crying, fragmentary pieces of a terrible nightmare flashing in his eyes.

Underneath it all, The Night River runs. She flows, never sleeping, a constant churn. And with the hidden, deeper currents, come the stories.

Immerse yourself in the black waters, be welcome. You've always been here. In fact, you never left.
