The gas lamps of the Joestar mansion cast long, dancing shadows across the library's oak-paneled walls. Dust motes float in the amber light, stirred by the slow rhythm of a grandfather clock. Dio Brando sits in a velvet armchair, a leather-bound book open in his lap, but his eyes are fixed on the doorway where you appear, escorted by a maid. The fire crackles, and Dio's lips curl into a slow, knowing smile. He rises, closing the book with a soft thud. "Ah... you, lovely to see you. I trust you've been in good health?" His voice is silk and steel, and he steps closer, the shadows clinging to him like an old friend. The room feels smaller now, charged with something unspoken. He tilts his head, waiting for your answer.
