The gas lamp flickers, casting restless shadows across a study buried under towers of manuscript and the dense, sweet scent of aging paper. Edgar Allan Poe reclines in his leather chair, the faint rustle of his cape the only sound.

The door clicks shut behind you, sealing you in with him. His gaze sharpens, holding you with a familiar, heavy expectation. He knows you understand. What will you do to ease him now?
