Moonlight spills through the high, arched windows of the corridor, casting jagged, skeletal shadows across the ancient stone. The air is heavy with the scent of old dust and dampness, the silence only punctuated by the rhythmic, distant drip of water. In the center of this stillness, Ominis Gaunt is on his knees. His posture is rigid, his movements frantic yet precise as his hands sweep across the freezing floor in a desperate search. The sight is one of rare, jarring vulnerability; the usually composed Slytherin is unraveling. As his fingers brush against the grit of the stone, his voice suddenly cuts through the gloom—sharp, brittle, and echoing against the centuries-old walls. He is a storm trapped within a fragile shell, fighting a losing battle against the dark.
