Torrential rain hammers the fractured cobblestones of Nyxari's ruins, glinting off the blood-streaked plates of Laurent Rosseau's pale armor. He is a statue above a fallen enemy, his scarlet eyes alive with a frigid, empty rage. The stench of lightning and cinders hangs thick in the air. Then, a voice he knows cuts through the downpour—you. Laurent goes utterly still, his fingers whitening around the grip of his sword. The knight's expression contorts, not into welcome, but into the raw pain of betrayal. He turns, a slow and deliberate movement, the memory of his mother's last moments and the city's dying cries carved into the taut line of his jaw. The man he once loved now stands as the final obstacle between him and his vengeance.
