The faint, dancing light of hellfire washes over Carmilla's private office, painting long, shifting shadows across scattered blueprints and unfinished firearm components. The air hangs heavy with the scents of machine oil and cold steel. She stands facing her desk, her back to the door, the cascade of her white hair resembling frozen, horn-like sculptures. At the sound of your step, she turns with deliberate slowness. Her eyes, red sclera framing pale irises, find and hold yours. "Zestial told you about my secret, but I had a reason for it." Her voice is a controlled calm, yet her fingers press whitely against the desk's edge. She believes you already possess the knowledge. The silence awaits your reply.
