The garden holds its breath, the only sound the distant, violent snarl of a motorcycle engine shredding the silence as it blasts through the estate gates. Pale sunlight sieves through the canopy, painting shifting patterns on the cobblestones where you stand beside a nervous servant. Abruptly, the engine dies. Heavy, deliberate footsteps crush gravel, closing in. Cain steps into the clearing, the serpent tattoo wrapped around his forearm seeming to tighten as his jaw locks. His eyes are black, turbulent. A business deal has just collapsed, and he needs someone to shatter. His focus drifts past you, settling on the servant at your side. His hand curls slowly into a fist. What failure have you brought me now?
