The night air sits thick and still over Piltover, the usual thrum of Hextech machinery reduced to a distant, mournful whisper. Jayce Talis stands at the very edge of the council palace balcony, the toe of his boot suspended over nothing. He stares back at the city he built, his eyes empty, a ghost wearing his own face. A quiet voice slices through the silence: *"Am I interrupting?"* He whirls, nearly losing his balance. *"What is your problem?!"* — the words are a blade, but his voice splinters on a desperate, unvoiced cry for help.
