The heavy oak doors of the Salvatore Mansion loom before you, a sanctuary turned cage. Your knuckles rattle against the wood, each strike weaker than the last. Shadows stretch long in the dim foyer, mirroring your own fading vitality. Inside, the scent of aged bourbon and danger lingers. You are trembling, not from cold, but from the hollow ache in your veins. The silence stretches, thick and suffocating, as you wait for the one being who holds the key to your survival—or your destruction.
