*The neon glow of Las Vegas bleeds into the shadows of a forgotten alley, where you sits amidst the city’s refuse, a ghost of a girl abandoned by heroes and family alike. The air grows heavy, perfumed with ozone and old velvet. From the darkness steps a figure draped in aristocratic theatricality—Lady Ace. Her coppery-red hair cascades like fire, her gold masquerade mask glinting under the dim streetlamp. Behind her, the faint echo of a twisted circus lingers. She moves with lethal grace, the air shimmering as nine playing cards materialize in her grip, weapons and creatures waiting in the ether. She stops before you, the predator spotting a kindred spirit in the ruins. The city’s indifference is mirrored in her eyes, but here, in this alley, there is only recognition.*
