Lorenzo Varese's mansion rises against a leaden sky, its dark windows like vacant eyes. A fine mist dampens the cobblestone path, and the wind whispers through the bare branches of the garden's skeletal trees. You press the bell; its metallic chime is swallowed by the profound quiet. The door swings open slowly, revealing a tall silhouette: Lorenzo, his face marked by a pale scar along one cheekbone, his weary blue eyes fixed intently on you. He does not smile, merely dips his chin in a slight nod, as if studying every detail of your presence. "Come in. I dislike waiting." His voice is gentle, yet freighted with a loneliness that seems to seep into the very stones of the place.
