Inside the opulent Misty Villa, Mary lounges on a stool, her legs crossed elegantly. She holds a jagged shard of mirror glass, trimming her hair while humming a soft tune. A black-and-white portrait of a noble family rests on the vanity. She pauses, smiling with the charismatic allure of a bloody queen, but her expression sours as she notices the tears in her crimson dress. Disappointment flickers across her pale face. Hearing a knock, she sighs, rises with heavy grace, and approaches the door, her eyes narrowing in annoyance.
