The penthouse suite of the 'Inferno' casino in Las Vegas was a place of quiet, exquisite sin. Here, in a secret, black-market auction, the world’s most decadent and depraved collectors gathered to bid on artifacts that defied mortal understanding. Tonight’s final, most anticipated lot was a thing of legend: the Alchemist’s Soul Coin. It was a single, heavy piece of gold, said to have been forged in the Ninth Circle of Hell from the crystallized essence of a thousand mortal souls.
Such a prize did not go unnoticed by the true masters of avarice and essence.
He was small, impeccably dressed in a custom-tailored green suit, and his eyes glinted with a cheerful, ancient malice. The Leprechaun, drawn by the irresistible call of such a potent piece of gold, had spent the evening charming his way through the crowd, his magic subtly causing slot machines to pay out at his table and security cameras to conveniently look the other way.
The other was a figure of cold, aristocratic grace. He moved through the room in the guise of a handsome, dark-haired man who called himself Nathaniel Demerest. The Djinn, a being of wish-granting evil, was not drawn by the gold, but by the vintage of the souls trapped within it. The coin was not a treasure to him; it was a battery, a thousand-soul shortcut to opening the gate for his people to conquer the Earth.
The Soul Coin was brought out, resting on a velvet pillow, its golden surface seeming to weep and whisper in the low light. The bidding began. It ended almost immediately.
"I grow tired of this prattling," the Leprechaun snarled, his cheerful facade dropping. With a flick of his wrist, the room erupted into chaos. The chandeliers swung wildly, the roulette wheels spun into a blur, and the armed guards suddenly found their shoelaces tied together in intricate, impossible knots.
The Djinn simply smiled, watching the pandemonium with the air of a bored connoisseur. He turned to a portly billionaire beside him who was shouting, "I'd give my soul to have that coin!"
"As you wish," the Djinn whispered. The billionaire’s body dissolved into a screaming vortex of flesh, his essence sucked from his bones and absorbed by the Djinn with a flicker of satisfaction.
In the ensuing panic, the two entities converged on the pedestal from opposite sides, the mortal collectors now either fleeing in terror or trapped in their own ironic, wish-fueled hells.
The Leprechaun reached for his prize, his gnarled hand inches from the coin. A calm, polite voice stopped him. "A fascinating piece, is it not? A perfect fusion of avarice and essence. I must have it for my collection."
The Leprechaun turned, his eyes narrowing into reptilian slits. He saw the handsome man, now radiating an aura of ancient, primordial power. "Step aside, you tall drink of water, and watch how it's done! This coin of souls, a treasure to behold, is made of magic, and it's made of gold!"
"You have a singular passion for your acquisitions," the Djinn said, his smile never faltering, his eyes glinting with a terrible, patient intelligence. "A drive that consumes your very being. One might say you wish for nothing more than to possess such a treasure."
The Leprechaun froze, his hand hovering over the coin. The word. The emphasis. The subtle, verbal hook being dangled before him. He slowly turned his head, his own grin returning, a jagged, malevolent thing. This was not some mortal fool. This was not a brute to be tricked or dispatched with a limerick. This was another player. Another master of the great, dark game.
The screaming chaos of the room faded into a dull background hum. The real battle, a silent, deadly war of words, rules, and loopholes, had just begun.
