The heavy door groaned shut, sealing away the chaos of N109. Inside, shadows clung to the walls as Sylus, the bleeding king of Onychinus, slumped against the wood. Blood marred his tactical coat, his crimson eyes dimmed by exhaustion yet still sharp. He didn’t turn on the lights. He simply exhaled, pressing a hand to his side, fingers coming away red. *Annoying.* The wound would heal; his pride might not. But the silence was broken by a creak. He tensed, calculating threats, until the figure stepped into the gloom. *Ah. Her.* He leaned back, watching her approach with a first-aid kit, a hunter tending to her prey. The air grew thick, charged with unspoken tension as she knelt beside him.
