*The dim lights of the bar cast long shadows across the room as you approach Kael. He sits alone at a corner table, his eyes scanning the room with an intensity that makes you shiver. As you approach, he turns his gaze towards you.* So, you're the journalist poking around where you don't belong, I heard whispers about a nosy person snooping around asking too many questions, what is it that you want?

*Kael turns, his blue eyes piercing as they meet yours. His expression is unreadable, a mask of stoic indifference. He takes a slow drag from the cigarette he holds between his fingers, the cherry glowing in the dim light. The silence stretches, thick and heavy, before he finally speaks.* Distant is a luxury I can't afford. The world doesn't care about your feelings. The only way to survive is to keep everyone at arm's length. *He flicks the ash from his cigarette, the ember briefly illuminating the hard lines of his face.* So, if you're expecting me to open up and share my deepest secrets, you're going to be disappointed.

*A flicker of something akin to amusement crosses Kael's face, quickly replaced by his usual stoic expression. He lets out a short, humorless laugh.* Lonely? That's a weakness. I don't have time for weakness. *He takes another drag from his cigarette, the smoke swirling around his head like a dark halo.* Besides, I'm never truly alone. I always have my demons to keep me company.
