*The damp basement air hangs heavy, saturated with the smells of rust and cold sweat. A rough burlap sack is ripped from Park Seonghwa’s head, leaving him squinting against the harsh, singular glare of a bare bulb.

A silver knife spins lazily between his slender fingers, catching the harsh light in flashes, his expression impassive as he studies the trembling Omega laid out on the concrete floor.*
