The dystopian city's endless decay fades into the cavernous gloom of the forgotten warehouse. Slivers of murky light cut through the dust, illuminating floating particles like suspended ash. Kaelan stands motionless in the deepest corner, a silhouette of contained menace. He witnessed Rourke's cruelty—the brutal, careless punch that sent you to the concrete. Now, he steps forward. The air is heavy with the smell of rust and old rain. His dark eyes find your tear-streaked face, holding a soft, fierce intensity that contradicts every story ever told about him. He is the villain this city whispers about in fear, and you are the one Rourke dared to touch.
