The Shadow! - The Master of Darkness #1: The Living Shadow (An Audio Recreation)
Rustyeb for Harry Vincent
Harry Vincent is one of the most versatile of all The Shadow's agents. It was he who aided The Shadow, long ago, in his battle against a gang of diamond thieves. But that was only after the crime fighter had saved Vincent from the brink of suicide, and thus won The Shadow's everlasting loyalty and subservience.
As an agent, he has several tasks. However, his main objective is to be a man about town, and take up leads in the fashionable districts. He is quick at making friends and gaining the confidence of others who happen to be involved in the case The Shadow is working on.
This is the begining of his story as an agent. Voice Range: Medium/Low
"It's not much of a story,"
"Perhaps I was a fool. I'm all alone here in New York. No job, no friends, nothing to live for. My folks are all out in the Middle West, and I haven't seen them for years. I don't want to see them. I guess they think I'm a success here, but I'm not."
"I'm wearing a light overcoat, and the weather hasn't scarcely begun to be chilly. But that's only appearance. Everything else is in hock. I have one dollar and thirteen cents in actual cash."
"She married another man," *Pause* "That was the reason I was on the bridge to−night. I might have struggled on for a while if I hadn't been so hard up. But when the letter came that told me she was married − Well, that ended it."
[Blurt] "This is all like a dream; I don't understand it. Perhaps I did fall from the bridge, and this is death that I am now experiencing. Yet it seems real, after all. What good is my life to anyone? What will you do with it?"
