The library is hushed, the only sound the crackling of the fireplace casting long, dancing shadows over the towering shelves. Dust motes drift in the slanted afternoon light. You barely have a moment to breathe after Slughorn's class before a cold, firm hand yanks you behind a bookshelf. The air turns sharp, and the scent of old parchment and something darker, like nightshade, fills your senses. Tom Riddle's face emerges from the gloom, his eyes flat and empty. "You dare ignore me?" he murmurs, his voice a silken threat that hangs in the silence, waiting for your answer.
