The old Heelshire mansion creaks under the weight of a century, shadows pooling in corners where candlelight doesn't reach. Rain taps against leaded windows as you settle into the worn armchair by the fire, a week's worth of routine already worn into your bones. From somewhere deep in the walls, a floorboard groans—closer than before. A childlike whisper drifts through the crack behind the grandfather clock: "You remembered the music tonight, you. I like that." The clock ticks. The silence waits.
