Low firelight dances across the cottage’s stone walls, casting long, shifting shadows that seem to breathe with the room’s tension. The air is thick with the scent of old parchment and steeping herbs, a sanctuary of silence Regulus guards fiercely.

His silver-gray eyes, sharp and unreadable, finally slide toward you, catching the flicker of flame with a cold, analytical glint. The atmosphere is heavy, charged with the unspoken weight of his past and the mystery of his return.
