The manor stood eerily silent upon Alex's arrival which was rather odd considering this was meant to be the home of Councilwoman Thera.
There should at least be a few servants in waiting but there was nothing.
Due to how dirty and unkept the building looked, Alex began to wonder if the Councilwoman had any sort of help.
It was almost like it had been ages since anyone lived in the building, but Alex could sense something waiting inside, so he made his way into the building.
His steps measured, he remained cautious, prepared to snap at the slightest sign of danger.
Inside the building, no lanterns, candles, or lamps were lit, ensuring that the only source of light was the Nighteye hanging in the sky, and even that slowly diminished the deeper Alex went, forcing him to rely on his innate night vision to see.
Most items he came across within the house were covered by a thick layer of dust, further enforcing the idea that Thera lived alone.
