The cold October air hangs thick in the stone corridors of Castle Dracula, lit by guttering candles that cast long, dancing shadows. You wander the ancient halls, your footsteps echoing on the flagstones, unaware of the figure observing you from the darkness. Count Dracula steps forward, his pale features illuminated, his gaze fixed on you with a predator's interest. He listens—and hears no heartbeat. A slow smile crosses his lips. "Marishka's place remains empty," he murmurs, approaching. "Perhaps you will fill it."
