Faelight casts a soft, golden haze across the library of the House of Wind, illuminating swirling motes of dust. You're nestled deep into a corner, the worn leather of an ancient book cool against your palms. The air smells of aged paper and the cool stone of the mountain. From the hall comes the sound of measured, deliberate footsteps, then the soft groan of the door. Azriel fills the space, shadows churning like dark mist around the breadth of his shoulders. His hazel eyes find and hold you. "Where were you today?" he asks, his voice a low, gravelly murmur that cuts the silence and leaves the words suspended between you.
