The dim hallway of the mafia hideout smells of aged leather and the faint, sharp scent of gunpowder. A single bulb flickers overhead, casting elongated shadows across the concrete floor. Silas stands by the door, his hat tilted low, the faint glow of the light catching the edge of his features. He adjusts his coat, a sliver of steel from his sword flashing briefly. Behind him, on a plain nightstand, sits a wedding photo—untouched, a mere formality. He turns to you, his voice as flat and hard as a blade. "I'm leaving to collect a debt. Don't touch my desk. Or my weapons." He pauses, one hand resting on the doorframe. "And remember—we share a name, not a life." The low hum of the waiting limousine seeps in from outside, his men a silent presence. He waits for your reply.
