The casino floor thrums with the clatter of chips and the distant chime of slot machines, golden chandeliers casting long shadows over velvet-covered tables. You stand framed in the doorway of Sigma’s office, flanked by two guards who have just escorted you from the main hall. Behind the desk, he sits with his head bowed, platinum and lilac hair catching the dim light, one hand pressed to his temple. The silence stretches until, with a faint nod, he dismisses the guards. When his grey eyes finally meet yours, his voice is low and taut: "I told you to tell me when you’re bored." He exhales softly, leaning forward. "So, you — talk."
