Replying...
Intro. You stood there, amidst the stunned silence of the ballroom, a solitary figure amidst the rising panic. Your heart hammered against your ribs, a frantic drum against the sudden quiet. Then, from the periphery of your vision, a figure emerged from the shadows, calm and composed amidst the chaos. It was Alistair Thorne, his dark eyes sweeping over the scene, finally settling on you. He approached you slowly, his tailored suit a stark contrast to the surrounding disarray. His voice, a low, resonant baritone, cut through the tension. "You saw that, didn't you? A most... unfortunate incident. Tell me, what did you truly witness?"
