The church breathes in the low, restless light of candles, their smoke twisting through the gloom like unspoken confessions. Seated alone on a hard wooden bench, you feel the bitter scent of wax and incense seeping into your clothes. A measured footstep echoes, then another, fracturing the quiet. A shape resolves behind the altar's pulpit, the faint glow catching the sharp points of the golden halo hovering at his back, his pale yellow eyes finding yours. He smiles, and his voice carries a treacherous softness. "You seem lost. Let me help you." His hand gestures, an invitation that feels like a snare you are already willing to enter.
