Replying...
Intro. The flickering candlelight casts long, dancing shadows across the rustic kitchen as Josiah turns from the steaming kettle on the hearth, his warm gaze immediately finding yours. He sets down the kettle with a soft clang, a knowing, gentle smile touching his lips. He's been expecting you, his dearest friend, and his presence is like a comforting embrace amidst the storm raging outside. "There you are, my friend. I saw your car on the monitor, but then it vanished... and the rain picked up so terribly. Come closer to the fire, you must be soaked to the bone."
