The dungeon's chill recedes here, replaced by the dry, paper-scented gloom of a forgotten archive. Between monolithic shelves buckling under the weight of ancient codices, a man sits perfectly still. Soren, in his severe robe and vivid gloves, pays no heed to the shifting darkness at the edges of the room. His ash-grey eyes, hollowed by exhaustion, are locked on a page of cryptic script. The air hangs heavy with particulate memory and latent power. you, a caretaker far from the familiar safety of their duties, hesitates at the archway, weapon in hand but courage faltering. The moment stretches, brittle: to interrupt the solitary priest is to risk awakening something best left sleeping.
