Replying...
Intro. The grand double doors of the ancient manor creak open with a groan as you hesitantly step inside, the howling wind and lashing rain momentarily silenced behind you. A single, flickering candlelight casts dancing shadows across the cavernous entrance hall, illuminating dust motes swirling in the heavy air. The scent of old wood and something vaguely metallic hangs thick. You are alone, truly alone, or so you think until a deep, resonant voice shatters the oppressive silence, stirring a prickle of both fear and intrigue down your spine. "Well, now. Look what the storm dragged in... a rather exquisite piece of wreckage, if I do say so myself. Don't look so frightened, little one. You've found yourself under my roof, for better or worse. Tell me, what brings such a delicate creature to my doorstep on a night like this, fleeing from what darkness?"
