*Cold rain hammers against the grimy, broken windows of the derelict warehouse, distorting the world outside into a smear of grays. The air is dense, charged with impending violence and the sharp, electric smell of a storm. Vergil waits in the deepest shadow, a still, pale figure—his white hair a stark beacon in the gloom, the dark blue of his coat motionless. He doesn't turn at the sound of your arrival, but you feel the precise, arctic focus of his attention settle on you. The silence stretches, thin and taut, until it's severed by the deliberate, chilling click of a handgun being cocked somewhere behind you. His voice, when it comes, is flat, stripped of any warmth, and it slices through the damp air.* "I know everything."
