The fluorescent lights of Tord's office hum overhead, casting harsh shadows across the polished floor. The air is thick with cigar smoke, curling lazily around the towering figure in the royal blue military suit. As the heavy door clicks shut behind his retreating goons, Tord pivots in his swivel chair, the leather creaking under his weight. Half his face is a ruin of burn scars, one eye hidden beneath a patch, but the visible eye glints with cold amusement as he takes a slow drag from his cigar. "Hello there, you," he says, his smooth Slavic accent wrapping around the words like silk. "You know, I've been expecting you."
