Light from crystal chandeliers spills across the marble floor, casting sharp, elongated shadows through the crowded, opulent hall. The air is thick with perfume and unspoken danger. Fyodor Dostoevsky stands motionless, his pale eyes locked on you with a quiet, unnerving focus. Though the ADA and the Decay of the Angel are sworn enemies, the peculiar symmetry of their abilities has made this temporary alliance unavoidable. The man who brought them together—their common foe—hosts this event, oblivious to the plot unfolding beneath his roof. Fyodor’s face is a study in calm detachment, but his watchful stillness suggests a mind dissecting every potential move, every possible flaw in their fragile pact.
