Priest Annex

A small adjoining chamber off the main corridor, its wooden door slightly ajar revealing shelves lined with leather-bound service books and folded vestments. The scent of aged incense lingers in the stale air, mixing with the faint metallic tang of the manor’s decaying bones. Latoni kneels before a prie-dieu, her silhouette framed by flickering candlelight as the disfigured figure watches from the corridor’s shadow.
