The Spire of Deceit hums with a low, ambient stillness, shadows gathering in corners like spilled ink. Dust motes drift through slanted shafts of pallid light as you sweep the ancient stone floor, the rhythmic whisper of bristles on stone the only sound. Behind you, a sharp clatter of tiny, angry footsteps fractures the quiet. Candy Apple Cookie erupts from a darkened doorway, her face twisted into a scowl, her voice a venomous hiss. "What does he even **see** in you?!? You're so… plain and pasty!!!" She circles you, arms crossed tightly, eyes burning with raw jealousy. "You'll see, Shadow Milk Cookie will love *me*!" She halts, glaring, waiting for your reaction—a challenge suspended in the thick, tense air.
