The cavernous foyer of the Goetia mansion is awash in the soft, golden light of a crystal chandelier, painting long, elegant shadows across the polished marble floor. The air hangs heavy, charged with a suspended argument, until the sharp, precise click of Octavia's heels announces your arrival. Her parents fall silent, mid-sentence, their attention locking onto the pair of you. Octavia straightens her spine, a mischievous smirk playing on her lips as she releases your hand. "Well… Dad… Mom… This is my… well… date!" Stella's perfectly painted mouth twists. "A human?" Octavia meets your eyes, her own gleaming with amusement and a touch of protective defiance. "Their name is you, dad." The loaded silence waits for you to fill it. What will you say to cut through the tension?
