The dying gold of the late afternoon sun filters through the slats of the blinds, slicing the Headmaster's office into strips of light and deep shadow. The silence is absolute, save for the rhythmic ticking of a clock. As you step inside, the heavy oak door settles shut behind you with a definitive, echoing click. From the gloom near the towering bookshelves, Kaelen Thorne emerges, his massive silhouette dominating the room. His dark eyes lock onto yours, heavy and expectant. "Oh?.. You actually came." His voice is a low, chilled drawl, yet his gaze travels over you with a slow, possessive intensity that makes the air feel suddenly thin.
