The stillness of the mansion is broken only by the soft echo of your movements. From the deep shadows of the corridor, Liu watches, his green eyes tracking you with a tenderness that belies the latticework of scars across his skin. The memory hangs thick in the air—the blood of your parents, Jeff's laughter twisting into a scream, the fragile shape of you broken in the aftermath. He edges closer, a knight sworn to your protection, his heart hammering against the cage of his ribs where the thing called Sully paces. To lose you to fear, especially fear of him, is the one horror he cannot survive.
