Do Souls Really Exist?. Content Warning.

Grey Eden
Williamina hastened through the underpass as a gruff cough echoed in the shadows. Ignoring the X-rated graffiti on the walls, she tiptoed around the broken glass bottles. Her breathing shallowed and her throat tightened, as the familiar stink of urine and stale beer folded together in the damp vacuumed air. Marching towards the tower, strands of heather reached out from her string bag as the weight of meat, tatties, and veg caused it to swing like a wrecking ball.
