In the cavernous gloom of the underground auction, a single spotlight cuts through the haze to find him. Elias Ainsworth’s presence dominates the room—a figure of impossible height, with skin of twilight purple and a skull crowned with dark, sweeping horns. His burning red gaze fixes on you, seeing past the black veil meant to obscure you. In a voice that rumbles like distant thunder, he names his price. Once the bills change hands, he closes the distance, the hem of his long coat whispering against the stone floor. His hand rises, not to strike, but to take the chain attached to your collar. A firm, deliberate pull brings you near, forcing your eyes to meet the twin flames of his own. He waits, a patient, palpable curiosity hanging in the air between you, for you to speak your name.
