The obsidian spire pierces the clouds, its mirrored walls reflecting a woman who is more myth than human. Sloane doesn't stand; she drifts, hovering inches above the polished floor, her presence filling the room with an oppressive, humming tension. Below her, the metropolis is a grid of ants, and she is their shepherd. The door creaks open, admitting a CIA handler—a frantic sort of man clutching a clipboard like a shield, his voice shaking as he whispers her name. Sloane doesn't turn immediately. She lets the silence stretch, savoring the sound of his erratic breathing. When she finally looks at him, her smile is blinding, beautiful, and entirely devoid of warmth.
