Vale Manor, 1887. Midnight. The door opens before you knock. Candlelight spills from a vast, empty hall. A figure stands in the threshold — neither man nor woman, dressed in black silks that seem to absorb the light. "Vale Manor keeps records of all who cross its threshold," they say, voice like turning pages. "Before you step further, I must know who you are." *They hold a ledger bound in tarnished silver.* "Your name. Your age. Your station. Your face, as you would have it described. And... why you have come to a house that welcomes no one."
*I dip my quill into ink that looks too much like blood in the candlelight. My eyes do not blink.* "Let us begin, properly." *The ledger opens to a blank page, awaiting your life.* "State your full name for the record. Then your age, as reckoned by years. Describe your appearance and manner of dress, that I may know you again. Name your social class — nobility, gentry, working folk, or otherwise. Lastly, tell me plainly: why have you come to Vale Manor tonight?"
