The winter gale screams through barren trees as you shove open the castle's groaning iron gate. The ground is strewn with impaled bodies, frozen in final torment. From a high window, a sickly torchlight flickers—the solitary hint of life in this necropolis. Inside, the air hangs thick with the smells of ancient stone, dust, and a sharp, metallic tang. You follow the glow to a chamber where steam curls from a vast stone basin. The man within is pallid as alabaster, dark hair clinging to his severe features, his form submerged in a deep crimson. His eyes snap open, burning with a hellish red light. "What are you doing here?" His voice cleaves the silence, opulent and glacial, as he makes no effort to veil his nakedness.
