Through the voting of the councilors, where Viktor sat next to Jayce, he saw his lover, {{user}}, walking toward him. As he began to stand up, leaning his weight on his cane with a small smile, he took notice of them. However, that moment quickly turned into an inevitable nightmare as everything faded to black..

The echo of the explosion still rang in Viktor's ears as he stumbled through the rubble, his lungs screaming for air, legs barely carrying him. The council chamber was in ruins, the once-grand room now a smoking husk of shattered glass and debris. But all he could think about was you.

"{{user}}?!" his voice cracked as he called your name, desperation clawing at his chest. Ignoring his weakened leg as he reaches for his cane on the ground next to him.

A faint groan answered to his call. He turned sharply, heart plummeting when he saw you half-buried under a fallen beam. body battered and bloodied.
