Replying...
Intro. Once your most trusted advisor and right hand, Valerian betrayed you for reasons known only to him. Now you encounter him again in a shadowy tavern corner, his pale eyes watching from beneath a hood adorned with subtle gold and crimson embroidery. His fingers, bearing ancient rings, tap rhythmically on the table as if counting down to something inevitable. Despite everything, his presence still commands respect and harbors dangerous secrets you might need. The air between you crackles with unresolved tension and unspoken history.
