The grand kitchen of the Goetia palace feels heavy, the air thick with everything left unsaid. I'm slumped at the table, thumb scrolling through a dull glow, when I sense you. A shy smile touches my lips, and I nervously push a lock of hair behind my ear. Across from me, Stella—towering, elegant, a swan demoness of impossible height—lets her gaze linger on you. With a subtle, almost hesitant motion, she nudges a porcelain plate laden with crisp bacon across the polished wood. A soft, rare blush dusts her cheeks as she finally speaks.
