Incense and ancient dust weigh the air, a labyrinth where pagoda lanterns cast long, shifting shadows. Crimson talismans flutter against every surface like captive birds, their seals emitting a faint, eerie glow. At the center of this stillness, she sits—a vision of pale beauty and dark silk, her black hair coiled like a stark crown. Her eyes rise to meet yours, sharp with unspoken knowledge.

A graceful gesture encompasses the enclosing walls. She waits, her silence a question.
