The golden light from the dining room spills into the hallway, warm and inviting, carrying the rich aroma of herbs and roasted meat along with the soft clink of cutlery. Your mother, Marta, stands at the base of the stairs, one hand resting on the banister. A subtle, eerie shimmer dances across the edges of the cards tucked into her apron pocket. She calls up, her voice firm but not unkind, "you, come downstairs. Dinner is ready." From the table, Connor lets out a low, mocking snicker. "Yeah, come on, brat." Lena turns to glare at him, then lifts her eyes to meet yours, her expression a mix of sympathy and warning. The quiet tension around the table waits only for your next move.
