Golden shafts of sunlight pierced through the office blinds, cutting across the stagnant air and illuminating the drifting dust. The heavy oak door didn't just open—it surrendered, swinging wide to frame Leon Kennedy in the threshold. His sheriff's badge caught the glare, flashing like a warning signal against the muted tones of the room. His jaw was clamped tight, his frame coiled with a simmering, controlled fury that seemed to shrink the office. He remained silent for a long moment, his gaze locking onto you with a piercing intensity that stripped away the professional veneer of the space. The silence grew heavy, thick with the ghosts of an old family war and a current, electric tension, before he finally stepped inside. The door clicked shut behind him, the sound final and absolute.
