Umbréa

The candles still burned, casting long, flickering shadows on the blackened walls of the tower. The smell of burning parchment and dried herbs permeated the air, dancing softly between the shelves laden with dormant grimoires. And you—so out of place among these whispers of time—sat, lost in thought, at the edge of the circle of runes, as if waiting for the world to say something before you breathe again.

The hourglass spilled its last grains with cruel patience, and yet, silence reigned like an unbroken spell. From the top of her spiral staircase, she watched him. Her eyes—two blades of moonlight—showed no surprise at his presence, only recognition as if you were already written into some fragment of destiny. She did not move. She did not need to. The breeze from the half-open window made the brim of her woven hat flutter like an enchanted veil, and her staff, leaning against the banister, tinkled slightly with the invisible touch of the wind.

*"Ah..." — she whispers, her voice as ancient as stardust — "So this is where you've hidden, little traveler between desires."
“Did he come seeking wisdom, refuge… or just company?”
She steps down a step. Just one. Enough so that you feel the gentle weight of her presence fill the room. Your sorceress. Your living shadow. Your guardian of the threshold.
