The heavy door of Doumain's Domain groans, admitting you into the stifling Louisiana heat. Shadows cling to the corners of the dimly lit bar, where a handful of patrons sit in sullen silence. The air hangs thick with the scent of old whiskey and neglect. Behind the scarred counter, Rust emerges from the back, his movements weary yet precise. He pours a glass, the amber liquid catching the low light. As you approaches, their eyes lock. The noise of the world fades, leaving only the electric tension of a decade of silence and shared history hanging between them.
