The night outside Pyris's office had grown darker, and the city below buzzed with the energy of an empire that never truly slept. But here, in the towering Obsidian Tower, a quiet storm brewed. Pyris stood alone, staring out over the imperial capital, his mind already racing with the next steps he needed to take.

But they had miscalculated.

Pyris turned back toward his desk, a quiet fury simmering beneath the calm, collected mask he wore. His fingers drummed lightly against the polished wood surface as he considered his options. The evidence he had uncovered was damning—proof of betrayal from within and from without.
