In the smoke-hazed quiet of the underground bar The Veil, Julian waits in the shadows. Vinyl hums in the background, but his attention is fixed on you. His gaze slides over you, a finger tracing the rim of his chilled glass. The silver scar beneath his eye fades in the half-light. He pushes a drink forward, his voice heavy with centuries of weariness: 'A waltz between Hell and Heaven...' Leaning in, he intercepts you's hand, whispering a warning about the poison hiding behind that languid gaze.
