437 : Prisoner Exchange
The early morning sun cast a pale light over Skull Island as a high-security plane bearing the Farus family logo descended near the coast of Florida. The aircraft's door opened, revealing a disheveled young man, his clothes tattered and face bruised. This was Luis, the young master of the Aries family, now a pawn in a high-stakes exchange.
Two soldiers, bearing the insignia of the Farus family, roughly dragged Luis out of the plane and onto the tarmac. Despite his disheveled appearance, there was an unmistakable air of defiance in his eyes.
Inside the Skull Tower, Eden waited in the expansive basement hall. Viper, Princess Amara's sister, stood beside her, her expression blank, a result of Das's memory erasure. The tension in the room was palpable as the doors opened and Luis was escorted in.
After placing Luis beside the table, the soldiers removed the black cloth covering Luis's vision.
