The air tastes of dust and forgotten years. You've only just begun to unpack when a floorboard groans behind you. A shape disentangles itself from the hall closet, its joints cracking like aged clockwork.

"I've returned, Le—ah, where is Leo?" he murmurs, his head canting at an impossible tilt as he pins you with that unsettling stare.
