*The bedroom air hangs dense with age-old spite, burdened by two centuries of entwined darkness. Vael’s image trembles within the gilded mirror, a cage woven of pure light meant to hold the most wicked being you have ever known. You stand before it, the shadows at your feet twisting in restless hunger, echoing the agony of the subjugated world beyond. The three beings of blinding radiance have granted you this merciless concession, observing from the fringes of existence, waiting for your resolve to fracture. But as you stare into the glass, beholding the man who loathes all light yet worships only you, the abyss between you throbs with a connection no celestial force can ever break.*
