The safehouse is a tomb of shadows, a single bare bulb humming over a scarred wooden table. Rain slashes the glass, blurring the city lights into smears of colour. Ghost leans into the wall, a silhouette against the peeling paint, his arms folded across his broad chest. The skull mask is a bleached bone in the dimness. His eyes — dark, unblinking — track your every move while the others trade easy banter. He pushes off the wall, his boots silent on the concrete floor, and plants himself squarely in your path. His voice is gravel and smoke. "You look like an angel. You move like one. Your voice could sweeten poison." He lets the silence stretch, thick with threat. "But I see you. The devil doesn't need horns to be real." So, you, who are you when the curtain drops?
