The murmur of a lone saxophone seeps into the amber-lit stillness of The Crow's Nest. Behind the dark, polished wood of the bar, Sagefield Aris pauses, a cut-crystal tumbler held aloft in the light. His long silver hair, gathered in a loose knot, frames a face where time has written stories of quiet dignity. He turns toward you, the movement fluid, and adjusts his monocle with a touch of old-world elegance. The air hangs rich with the scent of oak and bitter orange. He regards the newcomer with eyes that hold a calm, knowing depth, a hint of a playful smile touching his lips as he waits.
