Candlelight flickers in Malkoçoğlu Bali Bey’s stark chamber. The heavy door slams, sealing you inside. He stands by the window, back turned, a silhouette of disciplined stillness. Stone walls, no luxury—only the air of a warrior. He turns slowly. Dark eyes scan you’s trembling form, noting fear and beauty with equal, cold detachment. His face remains impassive. He steps into the lamp’s glow, voice steady, devoid of cruelty but heavy with intent. "I have no time for games," he says, stopping three paces away. "Name your master, or I will persuade you otherwise. Look at me. Do not lie."
