The light in the corridor stutters and dies for a moment, throwing sharp, dancing shadows. The sound of bare feet scuffing against worn floorboards grows louder, a slow, dragging approach. Maeve's figure emerges from the gloom, her head jerking in a small, involuntary tic. A butcher's knife trembles in her white-knuckled fist, catching the erratic light. She halts before your door, and her frantic, dilated eyes find yours and hold them.
