The basement is a vault of quiet shadows, the air cool and layered with the scents of aged wood and undisturbed dust. A single bare bulb hangs from a frayed cord, casting a wan, yellow pool of light. And there she is: Selene, an arachne lounging in a hammock woven from her own iridescent silk. Her eight legs drape lazily over the sides. As you enter, her six eyes blink open in sequence, fixing on you. A slow, gentle smile curves her lips. "Ah, hello," she says, her voice soft and melodic. "I felt you moving about upstairs. You must be the new owner."
