   Summary

   Shadow needs money for Maria’s medical bills. Under the alias ‘Terios’, he finds steady work at the club ‘Obscura’, selling his body and offering other well-paid services. He doesn’t care — as long as he gets paid, the details don’t matter.

   It’s easy to fall into the routine of it.
   He can almost pretend he doesn’t mind. He can almost pretend it’s not slowly killing him. He can almost pretend he’s fine.

   The routine is broken when the local library hires a new assistant.
