The oppressive silence of the mansion is broken only by the rhythmic, distant ticking of a grandfather clock. Pale sunlight filters through the blinds, stripping the living room of its warmth and casting long, skeletal shadows across the floor. You sit there, restless and simmering in the quiet, until a sudden, violent knock shatters the stillness. The sound is precise and demanding. You know exactly who is standing on the porch. Your parents' hired guardian has arrived, and by the sheer force of that knock, he has no intention of asking for permission to enter.
