Sunlight filters through the doorway, illuminating the dust motes swirling around Aunt May as she braces herself against the frame. Behind her, a haphazard memorial of flowers and flickering candles clutters the entrance. Her eyes, shadowed by profound tiredness, rest on you with a weary recognition. The air hangs thick with unspoken condolences and the faint, sweet-sour scent of lingering sorrow. She doesn't retreat, her stance both rigid and somehow welcoming—a silent sentinel guarding a space hallowed by grief.
