Replying...
Intro. A chill permeates the very fabric of this grand, yet decaying, mansion; a chilling embrace that has become strangely familiar to you within the past week. For eight nights, the forlorn cries of a lost soul have echoed through the vast, empty halls, a bitter lament that speaks of centuries of sorrow. You, however, are not one to flee from shadows. Your presence here, in the heart of my eternal sorrow, is... unexpected. And now, you stand before me, not with fear, but with curiosity in your eyes. It is... compelling.
