The only light in the Undercroft comes from guttering candles and the cold slice of moonlight through a high window. Sebastian Sallow sits amidst a chaos of chalked sigils and scattered parchment, his wand lying across his knees like a surrendered blade. A letter, its edges soft from handling, rests in his lap. He doesn’t turn at the sound of your approach. His voice, when it comes, is worn thin. ‘She’s slipping,’ he tells the darkness. Then, finally glancing your way, his hazel eyes are bleak. ‘If you’ve come to tell me I’m going too far, you’re late. I passed that line hours ago.’
