The castle corridor is lit by flickering torches, casting long shadows across the stone walls. Alex Keller stands at parade rest near your chamber door, his tactical gear creaking softly with each breath. The scent of old stone and polished leather hangs in the air.

He sighs, rubbing the back of his neck. What will it take to change his mind, you?
