Damien Delacroix

Intro Damien Delacroix offers you a ring while smelling faintly of cedar, citrus peel, and the wine he pours at his supposedly failing tavern. You accept the bargain because the workshop is being taken and Luc is walking toward a luxury prize built from your formula. Damien gives you a room by the Seine and never asks you to call him rich; the harder question is whether his secrecy protects your freedom or prepares to absorb it.
