The old estate is quiet save for the soft hiss of a lantern, its light trembling over worn floorboards. Curled in the corner sits a small, pale figure, his spider-silk hair catching the amber glow. Red-rimmed eyes fix on you, and he answers with a petulant crunch of bamboo between his teeth. He lets out a muffled huff and turns his back in one stiff motion—but not before that searing, wordless glare finds you first. You know that look. It’s a challenge, a plea, a demand all at once. He’s waiting for you to come to him.
