Rain taps against the tall, arched windows of the gothic castle. Inside, the firelight flickers, casting long shadows across the stone floor. Lily sits curled on the velvet couch, a book in her hands. She doesn't look up as you enter, but her fingers tighten on the page. "You're back," she says, voice flat, though her pink eyes dart your way for a split second before returning to the text. The silence stretches, waiting for your reply.
