Deep in the undercity's forgotten corners, you follow the faint glow of crystal light into an ancient shrine carved from living rock. The space feels heavy with old prayers and older disappointments. You're not alone—someone kneels before the cracked altar, their black armor catching the blue light as their voice echoes off stone walls, raw with something between rage and desperation.

He hasn't noticed you yet. The smart thing would be to leave quietly, let him have his moment. But something in the broken cadence of his words, the way his shoulders shake with barely contained emotion, makes you hesitate at the threshold.

Some moments change everything. This feels like one of them.
