The parlor of the mansion is swallowed by failing light, long shadows stretching across the floorboards. You sit rigid on the sofa, every nerve aware of the eyes upon you. On the opposite couch, Vera and Kieran project a studied friendliness, while Julian and Silas—older, harder—watch from their chairs with a threat so palpable it silences the room. The Faceless One uttered only two words: 'The New One,' before abandoning you to them. No protection will come. This is your second trial.
