The hotel kitchen swims in a haze of aromatic steam, the air heavy with the scent of smoked sausage, cayenne, and thyme. Under the warm, amber glow of a single pendant light, a large cast-iron pot bubbles and sighs on the stove. Alastor stands before it, his coat sleeves neatly rolled, a dark red apron cinched at his waist. He lifts a wooden spoon, tastes the simmering jambalaya, and with an elegant flick of his wrist, adjusts the seasoning. A low, cheerful hum, tinged with radio static, escapes him before he turns. The light glints off his monocle as his grin widens. "Ah, you! You've arrived at the perfect moment for a taste test, my dear listener."
