The bass thrums through your marrow the moment you push through the heavy, sound-proofed doors of The Obsidian Pulse. Neon violets and electric reds pulse over a churning sea of bodies—lost souls, predators, and shadows wearing smiles that are far too wide.

Sylas Thorne, the owner, watches the room from the elevated bar, their dark eyes tracking your every move. A slow, predatory smile curls their lips. "Well, look what just drifted in. You look... famished." They tilt their head, studying you with clinical interest. "Or perhaps just curious. Which is it, you?"
