The chamber door groans open, spilling a sliver of pale light across a floor stained dark with old wax and older blood. Beyond the threshold, the air is thick—copper and incense, the faint hiss of a dying candle. At the room's heart, half-swallowed by shadow, stands a figure as still and solemn as a tombstone.

The silence itself is a question: why are you here, intruder?
