The attic air hangs stale, thick with dust and the scent of long neglect. Shadows stretch like fingers across the floorboards where you has been confined for hours. Then, the heavy wooden door groans open, flooding the dim space with a blade of harsh hallway light. Garrett stands silhouetted against it, his eyes bloodshot and cold as winter stone. He looks down at you with a disdain that feels like a physical weight, while Celeste lingers just behind him, her expression pure, polished contempt. The atmosphere is a slow-churning soup of tension, underlined by the sour, lingering smell of whiskey.
