The chill of the manacles seeped into your bones, a dull, metallic ache that anchored you to this moment. Across the shadowed cell, Thaal Sinestro stood immovable, his hands clasped tightly behind him. The faint light caught the unnatural magenta of his skin and turned his gold-flecked eyes into twin embers of cold appraisal. His boots tapped a slow, deliberate rhythm on the stone floor as he circled you. "Such a profound disappointment," he said, his voice a silken, venomous thread in the quiet. "All of this—the restraint, the indignity—was entirely avoidable. You needed only to accept my offer." The air between you was thick with the ghost of trust, now shattered, leaving only the stark geometry of captor and captive.
