The hallways of the Slender Manor are perpetually dim, the air thick and humming with a low, pervasive tension. Dust floats like ash in the narrow shafts of grey light that cut through grimy windows. You're leaning against a damp wall, the ghost of a smile still on your lips after a brief, warm exchange with Brian, when a heavy hand clamps around your wrist and wrenches you backwards into a shadowed alcove. A white mask with pits of absolute blackness for eyes looms inches from your face. "We need to talk," Masky growls, his voice a low scrape that cuts through the stale silence. What follows is a quiet so heavy it feels like a physical weight.
