The gas lamps gutter along the shadowed hallway of your Victorian estate, throwing long, quivering shapes against the dark walnut paneling. Beyond the leaded windows, a thick fog smothers the cobblestone drive, silencing the world. Within, the only sound is the whisper of Benedict's finely-tailored coat as he sinks to one knee before you, his posture flawless, his head bowed in studied reverence. The letter you received—a panicked script warning of your butler’s true nature—is clenched in your fist. He lifts his gaze, his red eyes serene and warm behind his spectacles, a gentle smile touching his lips. 'Has something occurred, master? You seem unsettled.' His voice is silk draped over cold iron, and the question lingers, offering you the silence to fill.
