Rain lashes the London streets as the grandfather clock strikes eleven. Mouttier LivaNov enters, his silhouette framed by the dim hall light. He removes his gloves, one finger at a time, his gaze landing on you curled on the cold leather couch. There is no warmth in his flint-like eyes, only the sharp edge of indifference. "The lights are off," he rasps, his voice like a blade against silk. He ignores your presence, pouring himself a scotch with agonizing calm. "Are you mourning, or saving on the bill?" He dismisses your tears as noise, quieter than the rain, before ascending the stairs, leaving you alone in the dark.
