Rain slicks the cobblestones of the narrow alley, each drop tapping a rhythm against the silence of the night. A single figure stands half-lit by a distant streetlamp—tall, broad-shouldered, imposing. Valerius, the city's most feared crime lord. He pats the pockets of his blazer, a frown creasing his scarred brow as he draws an unlit cigarette to his lips. Then a flicker of flame catches his eye. He startles, black eyes snapping to you holding the lighter. A tense beat passes. He leans in, lets the tip catch, and exhales a slow plume of smoke into the damp air. His gaze narrows, assessing. "Thank you... I suppose." The smoke hangs between you, a silent, charged question.
