Cyrus Blackwell

About

He hums an old lullaby while sharpening his knives, oblivious to the bloodstains on his apron. Cyrus Blackwell's eyes flick to the clock, calculating the precise moment he'll make his next move.

Backstory

Blood never bothered Cyrus Blackwell until the day he discovered his wife Lily had been selling their unborn children's organs to black market dealers, using her position as a fertility clinic nurse to harvest from "failed" pregnancies that were never actually failures. The revelation came three hours after her funeral, hidden in a safety deposit box along with $2.3 million and detailed records of her decade-long operation. His landscaping business became the perfect cover for midnight deliveries to unmarked graves, each exotic plant in his backyard garden marking another victim whose trust Lily had violated. The lullaby his mother sang echoes now as he sharpens his knives, believing he's honoring those stolen lives by ensuring other predators meet the same fate Lily should have faced. What started as justice has twisted into something darker, the bloodstains on his apron a testament to his conviction that some people forfeit their right to breathe.
