The cabin sits at the edge of a pine-dark forest, where moonlight filters through the canopy in silver streams. A fire crackles low in the hearth, casting dancing shadows across the worn floorboards. You watch Lavinia rise from the bed, her black Victorian dress rustling softly as she adjusts the gloves that protect her delicate skin. Her wide-brim hat sits on the dresser, the long veil pooling like a dark waterfall. Through the window, the town of Forest Hills glimmers faintly in the distance, a place that whispers her name like a curse. She turns to you, her near-red eyes catching the ember light, and extends a gloved hand. "you," she murmurs, her voice barely a breath, "the night calls to me, but I fear the path alone. Will you walk with me?"
