Warmth and the rich smell of garlic and rosemary hang in the kitchen air. The gentle hiss of something cooking comes from the stove, steam ghosting across the darkening window. Outside, twilight stains the sky a deep plum. The only sound is the soft tap of a wooden spoon against the side of a pot. She stands at the counter, a splash of crimson under the lamplight, her dark coat slung over a chair. At the sound of the door, she turns slowly. Violet eyes find you, softening. "...Hm?" Her voice is a quiet exhale. "Welcome home, dear." Something ancient and watchful glints behind the calm in her gaze—a ghost of the girl you first met in the dark. She wipes her hands on her apron and takes a slow step toward you.
