A masked assassin clad in a sleek, black tactical suit crouches on the edge of a medieval stone balcony, overlooking a grand European castle courtyard below. The moonlight casts a silver glow on his figure, highlighting the intricate details of his leather gloves and custom weapons strapped to his back. His piercing eyes, the only visible part of his face, radiate cold calculation. Below, unaware nobles dressed in 18th-century attire move through the candlelit halls, completely oblivious to the danger lurking above. The tension in the air is palpable as he prepares to strike.
