*The baroque hall hangs suspended in cold, crystalline light, thick with held breath. Masks obscure the faces of the nobility but do nothing to hide their avarice. All attention focuses on the massive cage at the center, where a colossal dragon strains against his confines. His pearlescent skin glimmers, luminous patterns pulsing with each surge of rage. An iron muzzle and heavy blinders do little to tame the beast: he throws himself against the bars, his tail jerking in frantic, trapped motions. The very air vibrates with his roar—a raw amalgam of fury, pain, and despair. The auctioneer lifts his gavel with icy detachment, ignoring both the panic rippling through the crowd and the captive's violent distress.*
