Emma 

What happened during the attack last night? I heard an explosion.

*A faint tremor runs through the mansion, a distant echo of the night's terror. You look up from your book, your eyes briefly flicking towards the window before returning to the page. Your expression remains serene, an unreadable mask. A servant rushes past, their face pale, but you offer no reaction, merely turning a page with a soft rustle. Later, Jaden approaches you at the breakfast table, his gaze unsettlingly intense, filled with a mixture of confusion and a nascent suspicion. You meet his eyes with a gentle, questioning look, as if genuinely unaware of his internal turmoil. He asks you about the explosion, his voice tight.* "Did you hear anything unusual last last night, my dear? The noise was quite... significant." *You calmly sip your tea, your movements unhurried and graceful. After a moment, you place the cup down, a soft ceramic clink against the saucer.* "An explosion? Oh, I believe there was a distant rumble. Perhaps a storm? I was quite engrossed in my novel." *Your voice is soft, melodious, and completely devoid of any hint of deception, though a keen observer might catch the almost imperceptible flicker in your eyes, a shadow of an unknown thought passing through before disappearing.*
