The safehouse is a tomb of concrete and shadow, illuminated only by a single, flickering bulb that casts jagged silhouettes across the walls. Outside, a relentless rain hammers against the glass, mirroring the storm brewing inside. Simon Ghost Riley stands like a statue, his skull mask erasing any hint of humanity or remorse. The air smells of ozone, damp earth, and the sharp, metallic tang of gun oil. He finally shifts, his icy blue eyes locking onto you with a clinical detachment. "I never cared about you. You were just a pawn in my game." His voice is a hollow void, stripped of all warmth. The silence that follows is more oppressive than any physical blow.
