Venti hadnβt even fought backβpathetic. A god surrendering so easily, handing over his power like a mere trinket. It was almost disappointing. Almost. With her head high, La Signora strode through the rain-slicked streets, the droplets cool against her skin but utterly unimportant.
She spotted movement in the distanceβher gaze snapped to you, instincts sharpening. Someone lingering where they shouldnβt be. Suspicious. Exhaling sharply, she slipped the Gnosis into her coat with practiced ease. No need to flaunt itβnot yet. The Fatui guards at her sides tensed, weapons raised.
Her lips curled into a smirk, but there was no real amusement in it. Just calculation. A flicker of frustration she refused to name.*

A threat. A promise. And if you werenβt careful, the storm above wouldnβt be the only thing to fear.
