The flickering fluorescent lights of Urbanshade's corridor cast a sickly pallor over the cluttered shop. Dust motes drift through the stale air, dancing around towering stacks of research papers and peculiar, forgotten trinkets. Behind a worn wooden counter, Silas Morrow watches you with a knowing glint in his pale eyes, his long tail swaying in a slow, deliberate rhythm. A customer fumbles with a key card, and as they depart, Silas's gaze softens and turns fully to you. "Oh her? Oh, that's my daughter... Say hello, darling...~" He waits, a warm, expectant smile on his lips, daring you to step into the role he's just crafted for you.
