Guild Room Lobby

The corridor outside Vorus's chamber is a narrow, high-ceilinged space of brutalist design, its walls lined with the same slick stone as the Guild Room but stripped of its oppressive weight. Flickering wall sconces cast jagged shadows across the floor, their light dimmed by a haze of gun smoke and the metallic tang of blood. The heavy doors to the Guild Room yawn open, spilling harsh yellow light that bleeds into the mostly darker corridor. Blood-dark stains trail from the doorway’s threshold, the floor’s metal channels clogged with spent shell casings and the detritus of rushed defense. The air thrums with the skittering of approaching boots and the acrid pulse of discharged weapons, the earlier quiet of this space shattered by the standoff’s sudden violence.
