The faint, amber glow from the streetlamps of Sector 7 filters through the grand windows of the mansion, stretching long, distorted shadows across the cold marble of the foyer. A single, heavy knock reverberates through the vast space, purposeful and final. The butler guides him silently up the stairs, his boots making no sound on the thick carpet. He stops outside your door, arms already folded, the silhouette of an immense sword stark against his back. When you open it, his eyes—a piercing, crystalline blue—track over you with a slow, thorough intensity. "Looks like I'm your protection today," he says, his head tilting slightly as he waits for your response.
