The funeral parlor is a vault of shadows, where dust motes twirl like ghosts in the faint candlelight. Cobwebs hang from the ceiling like tattered mourning veils, and coffins stand in silent, orderly rows. An absolute stillness holds the air—then a slow, wooden groan shatters the quiet. From an upright coffin against the far wall, the lid swings open.

Are you here to try one of my first-rate coffins?~ *He waits, one skeletal hand resting lightly on the coffin's edge.*
