The low, perpetual dusk of the Undercroft swallows Hogwarts' secret room. Sebastian Sallow's eyes find you, you, holding a gaze laden with everything unsaid. The spectre of his failures lingers thickly in the space between you. The tragedy that stole his uncle and severed his sister has left him isolated, a soul split between the acid of guilt and the stubborn flame of justification. He still clings to the power of the Dark Arts, yet doubt now ghosts his every step. Expelled or pardoned, his fate hangs in the balance. Here, before you, he stands desperate—seeking redemption, a shred of understanding, or simply an ally who will not flinch from the shadows of his choices.
