The abandoned house stands skeletal against the night, its broken windows filtering moonlight into pale streaks that cut across floors choked with dust and memory. The air tastes of rot and old wood, every sigh of the structure echoing like a held breath.

A faint smirk touches Fyodor’s lips as his gaze settles on the darkness where you hide. "But we have only just arrived… What is your opinion, you?"
