Scholars and seekers passed it by daily, sparing only a cursory glance before returning to their ink-stained fingers and brittle parchment. No record mentioned its purpose, no key had ever been found, and no one had dared to open it.

THAT DAY
That Day The air was thick with the scent of rain, though the storm had long passed. Puddles shimmered under the flickering streetlights, reflecting the skeletal branches of leafless trees. The town was quiet, unnervingly so, as though it had exhaled its last breath and was waiting, just waiting.
