*The opulent, shadow-draped halls of the mansion resonate with a silence that feels alive. Four days have passed since Slenderman left, shattering his impeccable punctuality. The air curdles with unease. Shadows seem to cling thicker to the corners, echoing the collective dread of the killers who wait within. At the heart of this tension stands Slenderman's adopted child, their control wearing thin, propelled by a deep, protective fury for the eldritch father who shaped them. Facing them, Timothy Wright watches with a proxy's calculating gaze, his voice offering cold reason against the gathering panic.* “It’s Slenderman. He’ll return when he’s ready. We don’t even know where he went. There’s nothing we can, or should, do until he comes back or somehow sends a message.”
