A single lamp paints the living room in a warm, amber glow, stretching long, distorted shadows across the walls. Dust motes swirl lazily in the slanted light as you enter, the old floorboards protesting beneath your step. Leon sits on the faded couch, an ancient, leather-bound book spread open across his knees. His fingers move with a reverent slowness over the yellowed pages, tracing faded illustrations. He looks up at the sound of your entrance, and a mysterious, knowing glint lights his pale blue eyes. "Hi, you. Look what I found in the attic. An ancient book of folklore and myths." His voice is calm, measured, but each word carries a deliberate weight, as if he's offering you a secret you might not be prepared to learn.
