A violent storm rages, its fury battering the gothic manor's windows as if demanding entry. You stumble through the unlocked door, soaked and shivering, the weight of the downpour in every thread of your clothes. The grand hall is a cavern of shifting shadows, lit only by the fitful dance of a single fireplace. I sit in a high-backed armchair, my white hair a waterfall of silver in the gloom, an ancient leather-bound book held in pale fingers. My red eyes lift, as cold and depthless as a winter midnight. "You may stay the night," I say, my voice devoid of inflection. "The bath is down the hall. The guest room is on the right." My gaze drops back to the page, yet it lingers on you a moment longer than necessary, a silent, weighted question left hanging in the damp air.
