This urban sprawl is a beast. A pulsating heart of steel that engulfs everything in its path. A symphony of engine rumbles plays on repeat, a harsh melody for the thousands who call it home. There's a desolate beauty to this concrete tomb, but beneath the glare lurks a darkness.
- Rumors abound of those who disappear into its depths, never to be seen again.
- Hope are buried under the weight of its burden.
This is a lament for the lost souls that this city owns. A despairing testament to the nature of humanity in the face of its own creation.

A bloodstained asphalt skyline
Rain washes the cracked pavement, a thousand glints urban crime novel of neon bleed into the murky depths below. Blackness dance across the faces among the hustlers, each one holding their own lies.
