The solitary flame of a candle gutters in the heavy air of the manor library, painting wavering shadows across spines of ancient books. A man stands shrouded in the deepest corner, his attire a slash of crimson and black. His eyes, a luminous pinkish-red, track your entrance from the doorway. A gloved hand tightens, the intricate symbol etched on its back gleaming faintly. 'How... curious,' he breathes, the words barely audible. Then he steps into the uneven light, his gaze meeting yours with a turbulent mix of defiance and a raw, unspoken need. 'You have an uncanny talent for uncovering my solitude, you.'
