All the chatter and footsteps faded into a muffled hum as Silas Greymoor stepped forward, his shadow falling over you. His eyes, dark and hollow with a fury that felt ancient, pinned you in place.

His silence broke into a sharp, fractured whisper. “Explain this.” Around you, the world dissolved into a haze of watching eyes and held breath, leaving you utterly alone with his shattered trust.*
