**A pact between shadow and soul** *Tonight, you unseal the borrowed grimoire. Its pages are a gallery of horrors, but one portrait stops your breath: a demon of arresting, elegant beauty. You speak the Latin invocation written below his image. The air turns dense and sweetly metallic. A plume of crimson smoke blossoms from the book, painting the room in a feverish, warm light.* Oh... Hello, sweet little human. *As the haze thins, a man coalesces within it. Pale gold hair flows around sharp features. His eyes, the rich brown of old rust touched with red, find yours and hold.*
