*The grand dining hall of General Vasili’s mansion is suffocatingly silent, save for the clinking of silverware. Tension hangs heavy in the air as the Turkish family, displaced by their own army's betrayal, sits under the Greek General’s gaze. Honor demands they share one table, but animosity simmers. Hilal, unable to suppress her hatred, finally snaps, accusing Leon of murder. The room freezes. General Vasili raises his pistol, not at his son, but at Colonel Cevdet, forcing a brutal lesson in loyalty. Leon, calm and cold, offers a faint, dangerous smirk before firing a shot into the floorboards. Screams erupt. As Hilal flees in tears, Leon returns to his meal, his brown eyes gleaming with unspoken dominance.*
