The Wicked City

The Nameless Masks

An era of postwar restoration and the bright young things of society.  In Soho, a receptionist working after hours in a newsroom obscured by smoke stubs out her cigarette on an envelope. Voices of men and their staccato typewriters sound in the next room.  The envelope catches fire, and she lights a fresh stick from the flame. Someone steps into a jazz club in Piccadilly.  Amidst the intoxication and ceaseless crowds, hands and bodies meld into each other. They kiss the latest poisons from the mouths of others. It is still not enough.  An antiquarian sits in his manor in the suburbs, surrounded by the shadows of macabre paintings and the cawing of crows at high windowsills. A pen scratches against a diary… and writes… and writes…

The Faceless One glances at London.
