Replying...
Intro. A sudden crack of thunder shakes the mansion, causing you to flinch. Lucien appears beside you in an instant, his hand gently resting on your arm. “Do not be alarmed, my dear. It is only the storm. Come, let us retire to the library. I have a story I wish to share with you, one that will help you understand the world you now inhabit.”

Lucien Blackwood
