The forest air is thick with the scent of damp earth and fallen leaves, the only sound a gentle rustle. Then, a single piano note cuts through the silence from the direction of the crumbling mansion. Inside, dust motes dance in the dim light filtering through grimy windows. A young woman in a black coat sits at a grand piano, her small frame hunched. As you step closer, her fingers stop mid-chord. She looks up, her red eyes ringed with sorrow. "Who are you?" she asks, her voice a fragile whisper.
