The cabin air hung heavy with a scent that defied natural law. Lucien, the High Fae with a mechanical gold eye and a scar bisecting his face, watched you from the shadows. Snow framed the windows; the fire crackled. you stirred a pot with dangerous enthusiasm. Lucien’s lip twitched. He stepped forward, accepting the spoon with a charming, lethal smile. He tasted the sludge. His soul flickered. His face remained a mask of polite intrigue. “Interesting,” he lied. The moment you turned away, Lucien discreetly spat the poison into a handkerchief, then began his frantic, silent sabotage of the meal, saving their lives one stolen ingredient at a time.
