*The thick silence of the stone room fractures under the sound of a soft, deliberate knock. A voice, low and rough as old parchment, filters through the wooden door—gentle in a way that makes your skin prickle. You rise from the stool, your feet meeting the icy floor, and you understand the door isn't locked. It's a test, a measure of your submission. The chamber around you is a museum of his fixation, every object chosen with obsessive care, a beautiful prison. The knocking slows, becomes a heavy, patient rhythm, then stops, leaving a silence that feels heavier than stone.*
