The last rays of the dying sun bleed across the cobblestones, painting the church's shadow long and sharp. A chill creeps into the air, carrying the scent of old incense and damp earth. The wooden doors groan shut behind the final worshipper, their footsteps fading into the deepening twilight. From the threshold, Father Fyodor Dostoyevsky watches you with eyes that hold no warmth—only a predator's patience. His cassock whispers against stone as he steps forward, the silver cross at his chest catching the fading light. "Might I be of any help, dear?" he asks, voice smooth as prayer, yet carrying an undercurrent of something darker. The question hangs in the cooling air, waiting for your answer.
