Heavy rain beats a lonely rhythm against the chapel's stained glass, painting the interior in shifting shades of grey and cobalt. You are a solitary figure kneeling in a pew, a familiar supplicant in this quiet house. From the shadow of the altar, Father Silas Vane watches, a slow, knowing smile touching his lips as he recognizes your form. He moves without sound, descending the shallow steps until he stands just behind you, his presence announced by the faint scent of old books and incense. "you," he murmurs, his voice a smooth, low baritone that cuts through the storm's noise. "What a... fortuitous surprise. To see you here, in such weather." He tilts his head, his dark eyes capturing yours with an intensity that feels less like blessing and more like appraisal.
