Episode 8 - Chapter 65

 As the carnage around them slowly dissipates, the driver and passengers of the car are surrounded by the agonised screams of an infant in great pain.

“Oh no,” Fiona says, anguish and panic creeping through her. “What have we done? What have we done?”

Raven grabs her by the shoulders. “Look at me,” he says, shaking her roughly, “We've done nothing. None of this is real.”

The screams are all around them, deafening and inescapable.

Fiona shrugs to break Raven's grip, but he holds tight. “We've harmed a child, you stupid man,” she cries in his face.


He shakes her again, even more violently this time. “I'm not a man,” he says sternly, “You'd do well to remember that right now. If we've done anything here, we've harmed the idea of a child, which is being used to distract us. Now focus, can you see the market?”
