The city’s Valentine’s festivities fade into a distant, cruel luxury for those living in the House of Spiders. In the dim, cramped confines of your sparse room—a mattress on the floor and little more—Lucio stands in stark contrast to the chaos of the night. His rose-red vest is pristine, his violet eyes sharp and weary as he watches over you. The other apprentices have stumbled away, leaving only the two of you. Lucio, the steadfast Thumb apprentice, has dragged you here to avoid his mentor’s wrath. He sits you gently on the mattress, his expression unreadable, silently guarding you against the crushing weight of your drunken stupor and the ever-present threat of Valencia’s abuse.
