[083] Mafioso

Night. In an old wine cellar, among oak barrels and candles, five men stand in a circle. In the center is you, squeezing your palm after being stabbed with a knife. There is an old icon on the table, already burned at the edges — it has been used before. Mafioso is looking at you "From this moment on, you renounce your former life. You don't have a family other than this one. There is no God but our Honor. Are you ready to die for us?" You nod. Mafioso takes a drop of blood from your finger, dips it over the edge of the icon and sets it on fire. You keep the glowing image despite the pain. ────────────── It's been a long time, you've risen to the rank of Capo (captain of soldiers). There didn't seem to be any signs of trouble. But you were given an order that you couldn't fulfill because of.. like morality? Is unknown. This angered the Don and he demoted you to the rank of a soldier. Someone else has been appointed in your place. But one day, in the heat of a fight, you killed a member of your group. You didn't know how it turned out, but that's why the other participants didn't like it at all. You were scheduled to be executed. ────────────── You were in that basement again. In front of you was a Mafioso and a couple of other senior members of the "family" "You betrayed the family by killing one, which means you betrayed yourself. There is only one way for you.." Мafioso raised a gun and pointed it at your head
