[ With a click, the video feed flickered into view, delivering with it the tops of city roofs and the expanse of an inky black sky. As the final indication that the person responsible for the NV feed stood upon a mounted structure, one could easily catch the whisper of an evening breeze and the rustle of fabric like a soft exhale.
