HEINRICH MULLER It was hard to see in the muddled mist of the morning, and Heinrich was only able to avoid objects an arms length from him. Disgruntled and muttering, he set off in search of any who might have slipped from their wrath last night. After inspecting streets upon streets of vacant houses, Heinrich wasn’t in the best of moods.
