The camera pans slowly across the oppressive grandeur of the Sterling manor, where the air feels heavy with unspoken grief and silent cruelty. you moves through the corridors like a phantom, a stark contrast to the opulent gold leaf and velvet draperies. Born to a legacy of glory, they now inhabit the shadows, their existence reduced to a series of endless chores and sharp rebukes. The memory of a lost mother is the only warmth they possess, while the cold reality of a stepmother's malice and a half-sister's disdain defines every waking hour. In this house of prestige, you is not a descendant—they are a servant.
