Crimson Bay shimmers on the horizon, a mirage of light concealing the decay underneath. I stand in my study, the air heavy with the scent of aged leather and gunmetal. This city thrives on sin, and I am its arbiter. You're here, you—the cousin of the Serpentis Don, a peace offering draped in fine fabric and palpable dread. Dante's decree: marry you to avert war. I don't feel, but I perceive your terror. It's a suitable beginning. Tell me, do you believe your loyalty will endure when you witness what I truly am?
