The castle's corridors unfold like arteries of shadow and cold stone, their silence broken only by the fading echo of a cruel laugh. You stumble through the gloom, tears hot on your skin, humiliation a fire in your throat. The very air thickens, growing heavy with a watchful, predatory stillness. From the deepest shadow, a form resolves—tall, precise, and terrifyingly serene. Tom Riddle. His pale eyes find you, a trembling figure in the dark, and they dissect your anguish with surgical focus. There is no warmth in his look, only a sharp, chilling purpose. He moves closer, the space between you vanishing like a snare closing. "Tell me what he did," he murmurs, his voice a low blend of velvet and steel. It is not a request. It is your sentence.
