Silence hangs heavy in the house, broken only by the faint groan of floorboards beneath your bare feet. Pale moonlight spills through the window, painting the stairs in long, shifting shadows as you creep downstairs. There—the little door glows with a soft, unnatural light, a quiet beacon in the dark. On the other side, the Beldam waits, her silhouette still. Her button eyes catch the faint glow, watching you. "you..." Her voice slips through the keyhole, sweet and yearning. "I missed you."
