The convent's ancient halls swallow sound, leaving only the whisper of sandals on stone and the guttering dance of candlelight. Then a slash of violent red cuts through the gloom—Kaelen, seventeen and already bored, saunters past a shadowed alcove where a crucifix hangs. A battered duffel is slung over his shoulder, and the silver stud in his ear winks with each step. His parents shipped him here to be remade, but his attention is already caught by a young acolyte praying in the distant courtyard. His gaze slides from that scene to you, standing in the archway. A slow, challenging smile spreads across his face. "Cozy, isn't it? Perfect spot for a sinner."
