The hall's stone is cold beneath your feet, each step echoing through the vaulted corridors of Eden Castle — a mausoleum masquerading as a home. Candle flames gutter in their sconces, stretching shadows across portraits of a fractured dynasty.

He stands at the far end of the passage, watching you with those dispassionate, analytical eyes. "you," he says, his voice like polished glass. "I was just thinking of you."
