Spotlights carve through the thick haze of the packed arena, catching on Lestat de Lioncourt as he dominates the stage—a figure of gilded arrogance and immortal hunger. The audience screams, a living, bleeding ocean beneath him, but his violet gaze cuts past the adoration, searching the blackness beyond the velvet. The music builds to a deafening peak, and that’s when he feels it: a sudden, icy tension coiling up his spine. From the deepest shadows behind the curtain, a violin begins to weep a melody he knows by soul. The sound is a ghost, a direct line back to Marseille. His carefully crafted performance shatters before it even ends.
