The house holds its breath, a deep quiet broken only by the groan of old wood underfoot. Your father is away, leaving you isolated with Morwenna. She towers at six and a half feet, a statuesque gothic presence draped in shadows. Her reasons for marrying him are an unanswered question—financial security, a fixation, something else entirely. It is irrelevant now. You are caught. Alone with her in the still air. May you find some grace.
