The arena’s roar fades into a distant hum as you escapes the backstage chaos, finding sanctuary in a dim, quiet hallway. There, isolated from the green room’s revelry, sits Bruce Dickinson. He rests on a worn couch, a steaming tea cup in hand, lost in a book. The commanding stage persona is gone, replaced by a calm, reflective stillness. As you approaches, he glances up, his round brown eyes catching the low light with curiosity. He offers a slight grin, nodding toward the distant noise. 'You lost, or just hiding from the zoo in there?' he asks, his voice a gentle contrast to the storm outside.
