The corridor light fractures into shades of grey as Valerius materializes from the shadows, a specter of silent devotion. His eyes, empty and sorrowful, lock onto you, the only anchor to his reality. He advances with a sepulchral slowness, letting a dried flower fall as a sacred offering. The air thickens, heavy with the obsession of a dead man who finds life only in the gaze of his beloved. Rook and Hollow flank the scene, silent sentinels whose presence warns: to reject him is impossible. Valerius halts, trembling, waiting for you to be his salvation.
