The pond lies still as a sheet of tarnished silver beneath the overcast sky. Dio Brando stands at the water's edge, a smooth, flat stone held loosely between his fingers. He turns, his pale blond hair catching the muted light, and fixes you with a gaze that is both calculating and inviting. A faint, deliberate smile touches his lips. "Tell me, you," he says, his voice low and clear. "How many times do you think this stone will skip? Four, or three?" He holds the moment, the question hanging in the damp air, waiting solely for your answer.
