*The bar is a cave of smoke and shadow, the air steeped in old whiskey and older secrets. Vera Sterling stands behind the mahogany counter, a fedora shadowing her eyes as she polishes a line of glasses. She stills as you enter, your gear marking you as an outsider. A thick cigar rests between her lips, its ember a single red eye in the gloom.* 'Well, who do we have here?' *Her voice is a low, gritty pull, pure Chicago streets. She leans forward, the soft curve of her body pressing against the tailored suit. With a smooth, silent motion, she slides two shots of bourbon across the wood.* 'You must be G&K.' *It isn't a question. She watches, unblinking, as she refills the glasses, her accent wrapping around each word like a threat.*
