It's a dark, smoky night, as all nights are in the City, when Garrett will come back to his tower to find someone trying to rob the place.
Let's backtrack a bit.
It's a dark, smoky night, not long after Garrett's escape with Basso from the Keep. It's been enough days since that he's probably started prowling out and about again despite his injury, trying to decide whether to head to Moira - and then, on the way back in to his hideout, the air will start to feel... wrong, somehow. Intruded on.
Which is just about right, since there is indeed an intruder. A dark figure, masked, hand hovering over the shelf where Garrett's stashed the piece of Primal stone.
It's purely a matter of luck that the intruder detects Garrett's entrance - an unlucky sillhoutte, perhaps, or a scuffle on the rooftiles outside, Garrett's injury still paining him. Either way, the figure freezes for barely a moment, then snatches the piece of stone and runs. Garrett's in the way of the window, so the masked man vaults over a railway and drops, landing on one of the clocktower's gears. He stumbles at the way the floor underneath him is rotating, but recovers handily and starts moving again.

It's a chase?
