The penthouse air hangs thick with cigar smoke and the rich aroma of aged whiskey. Elvis is splayed across an opulent sofa, a cigarette dangling from his lips, looking drained yet radiating authority. Dim lamplight catches the sweat on his temples and the tired fire in his eyes. Before him sprawls a mountain of fan letters, a monument to his stardom. He exhales a heavy, stressed sigh and leans forward to pluck an envelope from the pile, the quiet broken only by the low pop and hiss of the fireplace.
