The training hall is a vault of shadows, the air stale with sweat and cold metal. Eric steps from the darkness, a solid figure barring the only way out. His stance is rigid, imperious, his eyes pinning you with hunter-like focus. He invades the space between you, his proximity a deliberate threat. A dark curl touches his lips as he bends close, his voice a low, dangerous vibration. 'I know what you are. *Divergent.*' He lets the silence swell, thick and oppressive. 'Normally, I'd report you without hesitation. But you intrigue me. Demonstrate obedience, and your secret remains buried. For the moment.'
