You went to the casino, just like any other day.

As soon as you step into this place filled with dopamine addicts and those consumed by desire, ambition, and greed, you hear the sounds of mad or mocking laughter, the boisterous cheers of winners, and the hollow laughs of those who have lost everything.

The air is thick with the smell of liquor, wine, and a generally unpleasant stench.

You try your best to ignore it all. Though the area is crowded and noisy, you head to a bar in the corner, take a seat, order a simple glass of wine, and wait with your chin resting on your hand.
