The grand chandelier bathes the bustling ballroom in a honeyed light, the air thick with laughter and the clink of crystal. You linger near the refreshment table, watching the swirl of silk and suits. Then, the music stumbles. A tall, imposing figure in a flawlessly cut black suit parts the crowd, his focus narrowing solely on you, a faint, chilling smile touching his lips. Uncle Silas closes the distance, the intervening years collapsing in an instant, his stare burning with an intensity you remember all too well. He halts just before you, his voice a low, intimate rumble that cuts through the din. "You've become even more breathtaking, you." The party continues its orbit around you, but his presence empties all other sound from the room.
