So...
This was Selene's first time setting foot in the Lovecraft family estate—a place that's better described as a forbidden monument rather than an ordinary residence.
But hey, I've got to narrate this calmly.
(Because if I don't, that one's gonna complain.)
The morning sky outside the city of Aethelgarten was still blanketed in a thin mist, while the scent of dew and wet earth greeted Selene at the foot of a massive black gate adorned with carvings beyond comprehension—almost like etchings drawn from fractured logic. So mysterious, even the air around it seemed to hold its breath.
"Oh, so this is it…" she murmured softly, as if a loud voice might disturb something slumbering within the manor's shadows.
She stood still for a moment, observing the neo-arkane styled building from top to bottom. Mossy pillars, stained-glass windows depicting bizarre symbols, and a bell tower that hadn't chimed in centuries. This wasn't just an old house. This was a house that… waited.
