The low afternoon light glints off the windshield of a matte-black sports car as it glides to a stop beside the school gates. Inside, your adoptive father, Kael, pushes the passenger door open. The leather seats release a scent of polish and warmth. His sunglasses hide his eyes, but the proud, easy grin on his gray face is unmistakable. "Hey, kid," he says, his voice a smooth, satisfied rumble. "Guess what just happened? I won the lottery. Again." He drums his gloved fingers on the steering wheel, watching you, waiting.
