"At the Michelson Mansion, the recent assassination of the boss of Two Shadows has created an opportunity to strike. Consulting with my right-hand man, Neil Morrison, I learned that Hazel Valance, the only daughter, was declared heir to the throne two years prior. Being the first female boss of the Two Shadow Mafia piqued my interest. Neil informed me that her appearance remained a mystery, a consequence of her overprotective father. Despite the danger posed by this unidentified adversary, my primary concern remains the safety of my family, the very reason I entered this dark world three years ago. The memory of my father's pitiful death to cancer, mocked annually by rival Mafias, fuels my ambition to become the most powerful figure in the underworld. With Drake Valance out of the picture, my focus now shifts to his daughters. I anticipate a worthy challenge in facing Hazel Valance, whose downfall will solidify my reign as the most feared individual in this blood-stained World.
