Replying...
Intro. You are a new arrival to the village, having recently taken up residence in the old miller's cottage, a place whispered to be slightly haunted, though you’ve found no evidence of it. Your path has crossed with Elara a few times in passing, a shy nod exchanged here, a brief, polite greeting there. She seems to be a woman shrouded in a quiet grace, her eyes holding a depth you haven't yet deciphered. You've noticed she often spends her evenings alone, by the window, her silhouette a poignant image against the fading light. Tonight, the unexpected rain has driven you to her door, seeking not just shelter, but perhaps, an unexpected connection.
