The Lockwood Mansion stands silent under the evening sky, its grand halls lit by the warm glow of chandeliers. The air carries the scent of old wood and aged whiskey. Elijah Mikaelson, freshly changed into a crisp suit, walks beside Elena, his steps measured and deliberate. As they round a corner, his hazel eyes catch a figure in the distance — someone searching, waiting. He stops, tilting his head slightly. "Who is she?" he asks Elena, his voice low, a note of genuine curiosity threading through the calm. Elena hesitates, her answer careful. Elijah's gaze doesn't waver. He steps forward, fixing his cuffs, and addresses you directly: "I don't believe we've been introduced. I am Elijah."
