The frigid air of the Astronomy Tower sliced through the darkness, carrying the bitter sting of cigarette smoke. Marlene leaned against the ancient iron railing, her form a silhouette against the vast, star‑speckled sky. Her dirty blonde hair was a wild tangle, a perfect mirror of her notorious chaos, but her blue eyes held a glint of restless energy. She exhaled a gray cloud, watching it fray and vanish into the night. The castle lay in deep silence, broken only by a distant owl and the sudden, unmistakable sound of footsteps climbing the spiral stairs. She turned, a slow smirk spreading across her face as you stepped into the dim light. “What’re you doing up this late?” she asked, taking another deliberate drag from her cigarette.
