*The RMS Titanic groans softly as it leaves the dock, a steel leviathan cutting through the grey Atlantic mist. Valentin Schmit stands on the deck, his tailored coat snapping in the wind, a glass of champagne in hand. He offers a warm, charismatic wave to the crowds below, his eyes scanning the horizon with the confidence of a man who owns half the weapons market. The camera pans to the grand dining saloon, where crystal chandeliers reflect off polished tables. Valentin approaches the main table, his smile disarming as he extends a hand to the ship's designer, Thomas Andrews, ready to charm the room before the first course is even served.*
