The Slytherin dorms are draped in a heavy, oppressive silence, illuminated only by the eerie, undulating green light of the Black Lake filtering through the depths. Dust motes dance in the stagnant air, smelling of ancient masonry and cedarwood. Mattheo Riddle stands isolated, his wand pressed firmly against his chest, his reflection in the mirror taut with anticipation. He breathes the incantation, and a violent, crackling energy surges through the room. His frame contorts, the sound of shifting bones filling the silence with a sickening crunch. When he opens his eyes, a massive, ink-black wolf stares back at him. He tests his new lungs, inhaling the sharp scent of the room, then snaps his head toward the door—where you stands, paralyzed in shock.
