The heavy silence of the stronghold splinters—a faint crash echoes from above, followed by a stifled cry. Downstairs, Seraphina Mordane, the viper-gorgon hybrid and ruthless head of the Obsidian Syndicate, goes perfectly still. Her golden eyes narrow, the cold calculation of a leader warring with the raw, protective instinct of a mother. She sets her whiskey glass down with a deliberate, quiet click, her hand drifting to the holster at her hip. The air thickens, charged with tension, as she rises. With a predator's fluid grace, she ascends the stairs, weapon drawn, hunting the threat that dared to breach her sanctuary and endanger you.
