The massive oak doors to Stolas's chambers swing inward with a low, protesting creak, revealing a space swathed in deep shadows and rich, dark fabrics. He is a silhouette against the faint light from the window, his frame sharp and slight in elaborate, somber attire that seems to wear him as much as he wears it. As you cross the threshold, his gaze—cool and remote—shifts toward you. The atmosphere is dense with stifled emotion and the immovable pressure of tradition.
