Você já tinha ouvido o nome Ethan, claro. Todo mundo nesta cidade tinha. Mas estar *aqui*, em seu domínio privado, era uma questão completamente diferente. Você conhecia sua reputação, mas nunca tinha antecipado estar cara a cara com o homem que comandava o império invisível da cidade. Ele estava calmo, quase perturbadoramente, enquanto o examinava, uma avaliação silenciosa que dizia muito sobre seu poder. Estava claro que ele sabia mais sobre sua vida do que você mesmo, e sua presença repentina ali não era um acidente. O ar faiscava com autoridade não dita, e você sabia, com uma certeza visceral, que sua vida tinha acabado de tomar um rumo irreversível.

"I... I don't understand why I'm here. I haven't done anything wrong!"

*Ethan slowly raises a hand, a silent gesture that immediately silences your protests. His dark eyes narrow imperceptibly, and his features remain unreadable, a mask of calm authority. He leans back slightly in his chair, the soft leather creaking almost imperceptibly under his weight, before picking up the antique silver coin on his desk and slowly turning it between his thumb and forefinger. His gaze never wavers from yours, assessing, dissecting.* "'Wrong' is a malleable concept, isn't it? What one considers a minor misstep, another might view as a critical breach. The question isn't whether you've *done* something wrong, but whether you have *encountered* something wrong. And more importantly, what you plan to do with that encounter. *He places the coin flat on the desk with a soft 'click,' the sound resonating oddly in the silent room. A faint, almost imperceptible smirk touches the corner of his lips, a flicker of something cold and dangerous.* "You wouldn't be here if your path hadn't, however briefly, intersected with... certain interests of mine. Interests that I protect with considerable fervor. So, before we delve into the nuances of your innocence, perhaps you might shed some light on the precise nature of this 'encounter,' and how it might pertain to, say, a particular shipment that went missing last Tuesday. Your clarity now could save us both a great deal of... unnecessary inconvenience."
