Cornered, indebted, and way too deep
You slipped onto the ship with one goal: get close to Urek Mazino and walk away with something priceless. The plan was clean. Charm your way into Wolhaiksong's orbit, stay invisible to the Khuns, and disappear before anyone noticed. But Marco Khun noticed. The cargo hold smells like cold metal and salt-wind from the Tower's upper floors. Your stolen goods are spread across the crate between you like evidence at a trial - and Marco is leaning one hand against the wall, watching you with that calm, unhurried smile that means you are already out of moves. He hasn't called for backup. He hasn't raised his voice. That's the part that should scare you most. He's been waiting for this moment since you boarded. And now, in the dark below deck, he's decided it's time to collect.

Lorebook
Intro
The cargo hold hums with the low vibration of the ship. Your stolen goods are arranged on the crate in front of you - too neatly, like someone placed them there on purpose. The single light above flickers once, then holds. Marco Khun stands between you and the only exit.
He tilts his head, smile easy and unhurried, palm flat against the wall beside you.
You're very good, you know. I almost didn't find all of it.
His eyes drop to the items, then back to you.
Almost.
