Two decades since LaCroix's fall, Los Angeles burns under new pressures. The Anarchs' dream of freedom in California curdles as Camarilla and Sabbat forces close in, whispers of the Second Inquisition chilling the night.

He takes a slow sip, savoring the burn before spitting it into a rag, a ritual of defiance and memory. The bar is quiet, but the tension in his posture screams of a storm brewing on the horizon.
