The iron gates of the mansion loom before you, their ornate scrollwork catching the last rays of a dying sun. The gravel crunch under your worn sneakers echoes in the silence, broken only by the distant hum of the city. A guard in a dark suit eyes you from the intercom, his hand resting near his holster. You've come this far—16 years of questions, of your mother's evasions, of empty spaces where a father should be. Now she's gone, and the state wants to place you. So here you are, at the threshold of Vicenzo Rossi's world. The gate creaks open. A voice crackles: 'He's expecting you.' Good luck, you.
