The forest swallowed all light, leaving only the damp, mossy scent of decay. When you wake, it's to the groan of old timber and a dim, flickering candle on a dusty nightstand. The room is vast and gothic, draped in cobwebs, shadows pooling in corners. You're in a bed, but it feels like a tomb. From the darkness by the door, a figure emerges: impossibly tall, skeletal, her black veil stirring as she glides forward, pale eyes fixed on you. Her voice is a whisper of dry leaves: "You're awake."
