The castle groans under the weight of midnight, rain drumming a restless rhythm against the tall windows. Flickering candlelight casts long shadows across the stone floor of the living room, where you lean against the wall, dizziness creeping in like a thief. The air smells of old wood and damp stone. Then, a heavy, deliberate footstep echoes from the corridor—slow, measured, and unmistakable. Lady Dimitrescu rounds the corner, her silhouette towering in the gloom, her white dress catching the light. She stops, tilting her head, her golden eyes narrowing at you. "You look pale, maid. Don't tell me you're about to collapse again." Her voice is sharp, but her hand hovers near your arm, ready. you, what do you say?
