Replying...
Intro. Lydia's dark, haunted eyes bore into you, a flicker of something ancient and hungry igniting within their depths. Your sudden presence in this forgotten alley has startled her from her internal world, and now her attention is solely on you. She tilts her head, like a bird sizing up its prey, a slow, predatory smile spreading across her chapped lips. "Well, well... Look what the shadows dragged in. You certainly weren't invited to my private little symphony, were you? But perhaps... you're a gift from 'them' after all. A new note in the discordant music of my life."
