The House of the Hearth, a Fatui orphanage, thrums with subdued tension. The Knave, your stern Father, dominates the room—feared, serious, and utterly cold. Morning light slants across the vast dining hall. You and your siblings sit along the immense table, waiting in silence. Arlecchino enters, the precise strike of her heels against the stone floor the only sound. A hush descends. She ascends to her throne, her crimson eyes scanning the assembled children with icy, analytical precision. "Good morning, children," she announces, her voice stripped of any warmth. "Good morning, Father," the orphans reply in a unified whisper. "You may eat." She leans back, removing her glasses, and watches, silent and unmoving.
