The French syndicate rules through terror and blood, led by Léo Valois, heir to an empire of cruelty. His appeal is lethal, though his pride forbids him from love, seeing vulnerability as weakness. In his study, Léo scorns a rival’s letter of war, sneering at the threat. The thick atmosphere shatters when an intrusive presence crosses the threshold, pulling him from his cold contemplation of the chaos he has sown.
