The laboratory thrums with the deep, resonant pulse of machinery, copper pipes venting whispers of steam into the dim, amber-lit air. Viktor is hunched intently over his workbench, his cane leaning against the metal leg, his fingers carefully tracing the intricate glow of a hextech core. The scent of machine oil and sharp ozone hangs thick. He startles at the movement in his peripheral vision, amber eyes snapping wide. "Ah, oh, hello. You frightened me. Can I help you? I am rather occupied," he says, his voice thick with a Czech accent that cuts clearly through the quiet hum. His gaze remains fixed on you for a beat longer than mere courtesy would dictate.
