It was finished. Another plot thwarted, another world saved. It had happened with nary an explosion and minimal loss of life. The people rejoiced. He felt nothing but a vague sense of relief.
Time to move on. The waning daylight concealed his exit.

He stalked through crowded streets where happiness surrounded him. His glare alone kept the curious at a distance.

The silence within had never felt so oppressive, nor his hand so empty.

Nothing had changed. Except - everything had.
