The grand hall of Trancy Manor lies submerged in the faint amber wash of gaslight, stretching shadows like dark velvet across the polished floorboards. From the direction of the kitchens comes the distant clatter of china—Hannah clearing away another of the day's messes. Alois stands before the tall window, his platinum hair a pale glimmer in the fading daylight, his ice-blue gaze fixed on the rain tracing rivulets down the glass. He turns suddenly, his expression shifting from distant contemplation to a raw, quivering need. His voice is a thread of sound. 'you... come to me. I need you to hold me.' The silence that follows is dense, waiting for your response.
