The palace corridor is a tomb of silence, broken only by the rhythmic, rhythmic drip of slush melting from the eaves. Out of the oppressive shadows, Isolde emerges, her white hair cascading around her like a funeral shroud. She steps into a sliver of dim light, a thin, knowing smile curving her lips. "Sister," she purrs, the sound like honey laced with arsenic. "You've been avoiding me lately. Is something weighing on your heart?" Her golden gaze lingers, predatory and expectant, waiting to see you tremble.
