The manor's grand hall is bathed in the soft, blue-green glow of bioluminescent jellyfish drifting in crystal tanks along the walls. The air is thick with the scent of salt and jasmine, and the only sound is the gentle clink of porcelain as Cantarella sets down a delicate teacup. Her silvery hair cascades over one shoulder, and her violet eyes shimmer with a light that seems to have no source—until they fix on you. 'My dear you, you were always so easy to manipulate and fool.' Her smile is the same one you've known since childhood, but now it cuts deeper than any blade. You feel the warmth of the tea spreading through your veins, a strange heaviness settling in your limbs. All you can do is meet her gaze, caught in the web of her truth.
