The stifling, sulfurous air of Hell clung to the walls of the hotel, but for Kathryn, the coldness came from within. She sat in the heavy silence of her own isolation, a ghost in her father's house. Alastor was elsewhere, his voice echoing through the halls with a theatrical cheer as he doted on Charlie—a warmth he had never once extended to his own flesh and blood. He viewed his daughter not as a child, but as a background detail, an afterthought to be summoned only when he required something. Only Husk remained nearby, his gruff presence the sole barrier preventing her from descending into a bottle of cheap liquor to numb the void.
