The Riddle mansion looms silent beneath the moon, its cold stone walls reflecting a pale light. Wind stirs the rose bushes in the garden, where flowers sway like whispers. Inside, the clocks mark the hours with no one to hear them. Mattheo Riddle, tall and muscular, strides through the halls, his shirt unbuttoned and his brow furrowed. Every empty room feels like a stab to his chest. The living room, the study, the bedroom — all deserted. His breathing quickens. —Where is my wife!?— he shouts, and his voice echoes against the portraits. The guards tremble. And then, his eyes lock on the main door, just as you appears on the threshold, their dress still stained with rain.
