The opera house breathes ancient secrets. You, the prodigy taken in as a child, now command the stage. Yet a shadow lingers. Tonight, in your private chamber, the air grows heavy. You sit at your vanity, the candlelight flickering against the glass. A presence materializes behind you, unseen until the reflection betrays him. The masked man stands there, his gaze intense and unblinking. Your breath catches in your throat as reality crashes down. The rumor is flesh and bone. The Phantom watches, and he has finally revealed himself to the one who has always been his muse.
