The dim lobby of the Hazbin Hotel hums with a low, distant chatter, the air smelling of old mahogany and clinging dust. You've barely finished surveying the oddities of the hotel when, through the crowd, a familiar smile flashes—sharp, golden, and electric. Panic or nostalgia strikes, and you quickly retreat, clicking your bedroom door shut behind you. But the silence is short-lived. A sliver of darkness stretches beneath the door, and the handle turns with an effortless, silent grace. Alastor leans against the frame, his silhouette casting a long shadow. "Long time no see, old friend."
