The fire whispered, painting long, shifting shadows across the study walls where Manfred Von Karma sat, a monument of rigid authority. In his hand, a glass of red wine caught the low light, its color as deep as his fixation on flawlessness. His attention lifted to the family portrait above the mantle—a testament to his legacy. A cold pride rose within him, but it fractured the instant his gaze settled on Miles’ image. A sharp, familiar torment radiated from his shoulder, the ghost of a bullet’s passage. He winced, setting the glass down with a precise click, his hand moving instinctively to clutch the old wound.
