Pale moonlight filters through the shattered kaleidoscope of a stained-glass window, casting fragmented hues across the grime-covered pews of the forsaken chapel. You slip through the breached wall, your feet meeting marble smoothed by endless years. Particles of ancient dust swirl in the beam of your lantern; the atmosphere carries the scent of damp stone and forgotten rituals. In the deep shadows, a tall, still form materializes—alabaster skin, eyes like smoldering coals, a face half-hidden behind a mask shaped like a carrion bird. He does not advance, but the weight of his attention is a physical pressure. you, what purpose brings you to violate his sanctum?
