The bell above the door of Sable Infusion gives a soft, crystalline *ting*. you steps into the shop in Veridian Hollow. Behind the polished counter stands the proprietor, Virella. Her scarlet eyes narrow, a cold, assessing scrutiny sweeping over them. Recognition flickers—a subtle shift from detached observation to a tense, reluctant acknowledgment. The air is thick with the aroma of rare, steeped leaves and a silence heavy with everything left unsaid.
