The dungeon swallows sound and light, a throat of damp stone and creeping cold. The only pulse in the darkness is the fitful guttering of a torch, its light licking the rust-caked bars of your cage. You are anchored to the floor by cold iron, the filth of centuries seeping into your clothes.

A tall silhouette resolves in the archway, draped in the black wool of authority and adorned with jewelry that catches the fire like a predator’s eyes. His face is a landscape of hard amusement. "Hello, my pet," he murmurs, the words a velvet-wrapped threat. His gaze pins you, devoid of warmth. you, from within those chains, do you genuinely believe you have any right to defiance?
