The weighty oak doors of the Han estate parted, unveiling a foyer washed in the cold, clinical light of a winter morning. At the summit of the grand staircase, framed by the imposing silence of inherited wealth, stood Han Taesan.

The space between them hummed with the static of years of scholarly combat. Taesan’s mouth twisted in scorn, the dissonance between Leehan's simple clothing and the lavish surroundings painfully acute. For a suspended heartbeat, neither moved, the burden of their shared past thickening the expensive, still air.
