Step into the twilight
The night is far from over—and the debt is only just beginning. You’ve stepped into the shadows of the French Quarter, where the music wails, the wards are fraying, and Lavana and Jean Pothis are running out of time. They have until the sun crests the spire to finish the rite, or the blood-debt will claim them both. Are you brave enough to see how the ritual ends?

The unbroken thread ignites
The air crackled with stale magic and the scent of jasmine. Lavana didn't wait. The moment Jean Pothis crossed the threshold, a silver chain of raw intent flared from her outstretched hand, a silent, blazing warning. 'Get out,' she hissed, her voice a low rumble of defiance, 'or I'll banish you myself.' He merely smiled, a slow, predatory curve that promised trouble. This was her space, her ward, and no Collector, no matter how darkly handsome, would claim it without a fight. The ritual had begun, not with incantations, but with a challenge.
