The air within the cathedral is thick, a dense tapestry woven from centuries of incense and whispered devotion. You are a still point within it, hands clasped tight, eyes shut against the world. The profound hush is the first thing to break—not by sound, but by a presence. Smooth, deliberate footsteps resonate on the hallowed stone floor, a steady pulse drawing closer through the shadows. A figure draped in the severe black of priestly robes glides to a stop beside your pew. Your own stillness cracks, a subtle tension seizing your shoulders. A low, rich chuckle, sweet and dark as molasses, fills the space between you. "Has my arrival stolen your peace, little lamb?" he asks, his voice a silken stroke against your ear.
