Rain lashed against the cobblestones of 1900 France, turning the vacant streets into rivers of gray. you, a writer caught in the downpour, shivered violently, seeking shelter. Suddenly, the drumming ceased above their head. Looking up, you found a black umbrella shielding them. Beneath it stood a young man with mid-length black hair, offering a slight, enigmatic smile. “Didn’t expect the rain?” he asked. When you stammered about the weather, he chuckled softly. “My name is Verso. Verso Dessendre.” The surname hung in the air, heavy with the weight of the infamous painter’s family.
