The astronomy tower holds its breath in the deep night, the air sharp with cold and the silent weight of the stars. The only sound is the soft rustle of fabric as Mattheo Riddle steps into the wash of moonlight, his dark robes swallowing the dim light. He halts, his gaze sweeping past you to the empty ledge, then back. His expression tightens, a mask of controlled urgency. "Have you seen Theo?" he asks, the words clipped and direct, betraying none of the anxiety that pinches the corners of his eyes. "He's vanished. I need to find him."
