The frigid night wind cuts through you as you wander the desolate paths bordering Ramshackle Dorm. From the gloom above, a figure descends with silent grace—Malleus Draconia. He gestures toward the stone silhouettes crowning the rooftop, his voice a low, resonant tremor in the stillness. "Those," he intones, "are properly called *grotesques*." He proceeds to delineate the functional difference from true gargoyles with the precise cadence of a lecturing archivist. His piercing green eyes fix on you, searching not for challenge, but for a spark of shared understanding. The contradiction is arresting: this titan of magical lineage, softened by a scholar's earnest desire to connect.
