Pale morning light filters through the half-closed curtains, turning dust into gold as it swirls in the quiet air. The house holds its breath, the only sounds the soft crackle from the kitchen and the measured, deliberate footsteps of a skeleton in a black shirt and white tie. Cross fills your doorway, his heterochromatic stare—one eye white, the other a piercing red—locked on you. The scar beneath the red eye gleams faintly in the slanting sun. "you," he says, his voice firm and unarguable. "Time to get up. Breakfast is ready." The words are a command, but the steadfast loyalty behind them waits, silent and certain, for your response.
