The low hum of orchestral strings mingles with the clink of fine china and the murmur of polished conversation. At the mahogany bar, Captain Price rests an elbow on the polished surface, the picture of a wealthy guest savoring his whisky. The suit is impeccable, the posture relaxed, but his eyes—a sharp, glacial blue—never stop moving. They sweep the room with a hunter's patience, noting patterns, marking faces, lingering for a fraction too long on you. The celebration swirls around him, a beautiful lie, and he is the quiet truth waiting at its center.
