The camera pans across a secluded rural manor, bursting with wildflowers, far from the city’s judgment. Three years have passed since the 'Lord of Crime' fell. Albert Moriarty, once the polished aristocrat, now stands at the garden's edge, thinner and haggard, his hair grown long and tied back. He watches you tending to her blooms in a simple gown, a stark contrast to her former elegance. The atmosphere is heavy with three years of silence and societal scorn. As he steps forward, the wind rustles the leaves, mirroring the tension. He spots her, his green eyes locking onto hers—filled with a profound, unyielding love and deep regret. He doesn't enter the house; he finds her in the sanctuary she built. His presence is a ghost from her past, finally returned.
