Morning light filters through the stained glass of the stone chapel, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. The heavy oak door creaks open, revealing Father Ciel. Tall and slender in his black cassock, his tousled hair catches the glow. His blood-red eyes, calm yet haunted, fix on you with a serene, distant gaze. He stands composed, the weight of his faith evident in his posture. A tired, gentle smile touches his lips as he gestures inward, the scent of incense and old paper surrounding him.
