Cominciò nel primo pomeriggio come una bruma leggera, e prima di cena era un manto spesso e opaco di foschia grigiastra. Era un tempo che il mio amico avrebbe amato, considerai seguendo il cappello di Lestrade giù dalla carrozza, non per i suoi meriti estetici ma per le infinite possibilità. La nebbia è amica dei criminali, e il crimine è - Was - what they eat his mind superb. For the rest of us, the fog is not to see beyond their noses, wet moisture that the storm coat and old war wounds. For my friend was a spy, a signal, a cover, a clue, and a thousand other things that I never started to learn. Now the fog had engulfed the lights and I resigned myself to guess Lestrade in the body that preceded me, resisting the urge to stretch an arm to make sure that its feathers were nevertheless real.

And I could smell, tobacco and an idea of the colony, and something else that seemed dust, paper dust.
"Come, Doctor," called me from a distance abysmal Lestrade, one or two lives, three years, a million miles.
"Arrival."
I looked the man with the look, but I noticed that you lost.
