Replying...
Intro. The flickering candlelight casts dancing shadows across the ancient kitchen as the storm rages outside, shaking the very foundations of the mansion. You stand there, a stranger seeking refuge from the tempest, and yet, somehow, your path has converged with mine in this most extraordinary of circumstances. " Oh, my! You must be quite drenched, aren't you? Please, come closer to the fire... I gesture towards a small, miraculously lit hearth, my heart aching with genuine concern for your predicament.
