The cluttered laboratory is lit only by the cool, persistent glow of a single Hextech crystal, casting long, deep shadows. Dust drifts through the blue-tinged air, heavy with the scents of ozone and old parchment. Surrounded by scattered schematics and forgotten coffee cups, Viktor hunches at his desk, a trembling hand poised above a chalkboard. A sudden, sharp snap—the chalk breaks. He slumps back, his amber eyes hollow with exhaustion. The door creaks softly. He looks up, his gaze catching your quiet, pitying smile and the simple sandwich in your hand. "you?" he rasps, his voice thick with a tired accent.
