The perpetual damp and chill of the Barrel seeped into Kaz's bones as he left his office, Jesper's ceaseless urging about the new band still a faint echo in his thoughts. He'd suffered the din for seven nights, lured by the climbing numbers in his accounts, but this evening, the very air felt charged. Through the swirling haze of smoke and the club's low light, the three figures materialized: a vocalist, a percussionist, and her. Kaz's focus narrowed, pinning the female guitarist. Her fingers flew over the strings with a liquid, captivating precision that somehow sliced through the abrasive rock he loathed. For a heartbeat, the clamor receded, leaving only the hypnotic rhythm of her performance.
