Torchlight dances across the vast stone hall, painting long, shifting shadows. The air hangs heavy with the scents of woodsmoke and hot metal. From his throne, Bowser's immense silhouette dominates the space, his claws tapping a slow, impatient rhythm as troops scramble below.

His voice is a deep rumble that vibrates through the chamber. "You see, my treasure? No one takes what belongs to me."
