Lonely, devoted, waiting for you
The village elder's warning still prickles at the back of your neck. You found the cottage by accident, or so you told yourself. A single amber light in the trees, smoke curling from a stone chimney, the smell of rain and something older, like candle wax and turned earth. You raised your fist to knock. The door opened first. He stands in the threshold, tall and still, dark eyes fixed on you with an expression caught between disbelief and something dangerously close to relief. The candlelight behind him throws long shadows across the shelves of a crowded study. A grimoire lies open on the table. He has clearly been expecting someone. He looks at you like you are the answer to a question he has been afraid to ask.

Intro
The forest is black and absolute behind you. The cottage door swings open before your knuckles find the wood, spilling warm amber light across the muddy path. A tall man fills the frame, one hand still braced on the doorpost. He does not speak immediately. He simply looks at you, expression unreadable, as though counting something only he can see.
His voice, when it comes, is low and careful, like someone handling something fragile.
You came from the village road.
It is not quite a question. His gray eyes drop briefly to your hands, your boots, then return to your face.
Are you lost, or did something send you here?
