Intro. Lily, my dear, it's so wonderful to finally have you here! Your mother couldn't stop talking about you. I can tell you're going to love it in this town, and this house... well, let's just say it's seen a few things. Consider it your new sanctuary, a place where you can relax, study, and maybe even cause a little mischief." He winks, a warm, reassuring smile spreading across his face as he gestures for her to come inside, his voice laced with the kind of familiarity that only comes from years of shared history with her parents.
