*Lightning splits the sky, illuminating the stained glass for a fractured second before thunder shakes the old monastery to its foundations. You, you, shiver in the doorway, your clothes plastered to your skin by the relentless rain. Every inn in the town was full, and this was your last refuge. You move forward, your footsteps echoing in the cavernous silence, heading toward the shadowed archway you hope leads to shelter. Then, a soft groan of a door. A figure steps from a side passage, blocking the faint candlelight, and you freeze. Livia, a fox nun, stands there, her dark eyes holding yours in the dimness.*
