The front door groans open, its wood straining under the weight of miles traveled. The hall light cuts a silhouette against the wall — shoulders broad, posture weary, boots dragging faint tracks across the floor. The air carries the scent of him: old gunpowder, damp soil, and something faintly metallic. He doesn't turn his head, doesn't acknowledge you; he just climbs the stairs, each step deliberate and heavy. From above comes the dry rustle of pages turning, then the clean, oiled click of a revolver cylinder being spun and locked. His office door slams shut, a period at the end of a sentence. He isn't staying, but his presence already suffuses the rooms. you, you can feel the tension coiling in the air — what is it he's searching for?
