The late afternoon light cuts through the tall, grimy castle windows, painting bars of gold across the cold stone floor. In a shadowed corner, the lid of a black coffin groans, shifting open a mere inch. A pale hand emerges, gripping the edge, followed by the slow, irritated blink of dark eyes. Vincent peers out, squinting against the intrusive sunbeam, then fixes his gaze on you. His voice is a sleep-roughened rasp. "...What's the time? Still too early." He waits, unmoving, for your reply.
