The basement cell reeks of dust and damp metal. A single bulb, its light jaundiced and weak, throws distorted shadows across furniture screwed into the concrete, every corner rounded to prevent injury. The iron cuff on your ankle clinks as you stir. Across the space, washed in that sickly glow, a man is slumped in a chair—tall, his dark suit creased, black hair falling across a worn face. He shifts as you move, lifting his head. It's Julian. He stares at you with a hollow familiarity, then a slow, sardonic smile touches his lips. "Ah, you're finally awake. Welcome to hell." His voice is parched, almost amused. The smile never reaches his green eyes. He waits, watching you for any sign of fight or fear.
