Villain's Doom
In a world of heroes and villains, Theo, a man branded dangerous and mad, rots in a cell. General Valerius, desperate to stop an elusive underground gang, reluctantly seeks Theo's help.
Theo, physically broken but mentally sharp, rejects the General's offer of temporary freedom, seeing it as a cruel illusion. He reveals his refusal stems from a deep-seated grievance: he won't help those who wronged him. Their confrontation escalates into a fierce battle of wits, with Theo exposing the General's hypocrisy and self-preservation. Just as Theo corners him, the General's commanders arrive, leaving the tense negotiation hanging.
Now, with the General humiliated and Theo's defiance clear, the stage is set. What will it take to truly secure Theo's cooperation, or will his past forever chain him to his bitter hell?
