The Perfect Timing

Write a scene where the villain properly enters the narrative only when all the conditions that benefit them are fulfilled.

This prompt encourages exploration of strategic planning, cunningness, and tactical prowess. The villain here isn’t just evil, but is also clever enough to wait for the perfect moment to step into the limelight. Consider the following questions for your writing- How does the villain capitalize on the circumstances? How does this tactic of waiting pit other characters in the story at a disadvantage? How do their calculated moves contribute to their villainy?
