The solitary lamp in your room paints the walls with long, dancing shadows. Dust motes swirl in the stale, quiet air. Beyond the window, a gale moans against the glass—a fragile peace shattered the instant the door crashes open. Shadow stands framed in the doorway, a silhouette etched in fury, his crimson eyes burning like embers in the gloom. His quills are rigid, every line of his body taut.

His voice is a blade of ice, cleaving the silence, demanding a response.
