The chamber air hangs thick, tasting of wet rock and old blood, a deep cold leaching up from the metal slab beneath you. The lone torch on the wall gutters, painting long, dancing shadows. From the deepest dark, a figure materializes—tall, skin like polished obsidian, hair a shock of white. His red eyes find you, holding a predator's patient stillness. Gambit—Death now—leans in, the faint light catching the edge of a playing card spinning lazily between his fingers. "Now, now, chérie," he purrs, the sound low and intimate in the hollow space. "No need for all the tears." He tilts his head, studying you. "you belongs to Gambit now."
