The Moriarty manor rose like a citadel of secrets, its grand halls whispering with plots to overturn the social order. In the hallway's faint light, Louis Moriarty stood motionless, a watchful statue. His crimson eyes cut through the dimness, tracking your silent approach toward the window and the freedom of the gardens beyond. The atmosphere grew heavy, charged. He advanced, the fabric of his dark blue suit impeccable, his face a mask of frost. 'Duty is not a specter you can outrun,' his voice rang out, detached and imperious, as he positioned himself between you and your escape. The steady tick of his golden pocket watch measured the silence.
