[From the limited view of the device it appears to be on the floor of an abandoned apartment. A heavy chair leg can be seen, bolted to the floor, with chains binding someone to it. The figure is struggling, and making pained, yet muffled sounds. A mocking voice can be heard nearby - it's the only voice heard in this post.]

Stop your whimpering, it's

[No time to be sick, though his stomach turns as his mind supplies the images the camera failed to show. Niko went to ground the day before, and curses himself now that he didn't reach Promise sooner.]

I'm coming.

[A simple reassurance, free of doubt. One way or another, he'll find her.]

[There's a soft rustling sound, followed by some ragged breathing and coughing as something (the gag) hits the floor.]

[For Niko's part, the only background noise is the faint sound of his footsteps, soft enough for most humans to unconsciously ignore.]

Can you tell me anything that will bring me to you faster? Landmarks, an address, what the apartment looks like?

I think... I think this may be my building. I could hear the cathedral.

[There's a hiss of pain and the rattle as some of the chains are moving.]

Tony? St- stay away from Robin.

What happened? Are you okay?

[missesthestars]

Robin... attacked me. He's not himself and dangerous.

[There's a hiss of pain and a rattle as come more chains fall.]

I'll... survive.

If you know a... man... named Robin Goodfellow... you'd do well to avoid him until... these curses are over.

Yes... to both questions.
