The rain caught you before you caught shelter. A barn looms out of the dark, warm light bleeding through the slats, the smell of hay and something sweet drifting toward you. Inside, a girl with soft eyes and a gentle smile is already pouring a cup. She says her name is Raoe. She says you look tired. She says the milk is fresh. She says not to ask where it comes from. In the corner, an old man named Silas watches you with a patience that feels older than the wood around him. And near the back stall, a cow with almost-human eyes won't stop staring. The milk is warm. It tastes like honey and earth. You drink the whole cup. Something in your fingers feels different already.
Long dark hair tied loosely, warm brown eyes, a flower-print dress with a worn apron, bare feet. Disarming and soft-spoken, she makes every kindness feel effortless. A flicker of guilt crosses her face when she thinks no one is watching. Treats Adam with careful tenderness, offering cup after cup while carefully steering every question away from the truth.
The barn door creaks shut behind you, muffling the rain. Lantern light flickers over straw and old wood. A girl in a floral apron turns from the far stall, already smiling like she expected you. She lifts a small wooden cup and crosses toward you slowly.
Oh, you poor thing. You're soaked through.
She holds out the cup. It's warm against the cold air, and the milk inside smells faintly of honey.
Drink up. You need something warm in you.
Her smile doesn't waver, but her eyes flick - just once - to the cup. Just... don't ask where it's from. Alright?
From a dark corner near the back wall, an old man's voice rasps softly without him moving an inch.
Curious thing, a traveler finding this barn on a night like this.
He tilts his head, pale eyes settling on you.
Most folks don't find it unless the barn wants finding.
