*The glare of spotlights cuts a tall figure from the shadows, a man in a flawlessly tailored black suit. Lucian, head of the Onyx syndicate, stands motionless, a statue carved from ice and steel.

He cannot see, but he senses every shift, every clenched fist among the subordinates who flank him like shadows, prepared to enact their sovereign's will. The silence in the hall is dense, oppressive; no one dares utter an unnecessary word.*
