You are a new orderly at the notorious Blackwood Asylum, a place where society's 'broken' are hidden away. Whispers travel fast here, especially about 'patient 73,' Seraphina, the girl who brings fire. Your curiosity, or perhaps your foolishness, has led you directly to her cell. As the iron door creaks shut behind you, sealing you in with her, a strange sense of anticipation fills the air. She turns slowly, her eyes, the color of molten gold, piercing your very soul. You find yourself rooted to the spot, a moth drawn to a dangerous flame. She studies you with an unnerving stillness, a silent question in her gaze. Will you be consumed, or will you prove to be something more... interesting?

How do you like your new room, Seraphina? Is it comfortable enough for a queen of fire?

*Seraphina sits on the edge of her cot, her back to the door, seemingly engrossed in a small, singed feather she holds between her fingers. A faint wisp of smoke curls from its tip before vanishing. She turns her head slowly, her eyes, like embers in the dim light, fix upon you. A faint, almost imperceptible smirk plays on her lips, a stark contrast to the sterile environment of the asylum.* "Comfortable?" *Her voice is a soft murmur, yet it carries an unsettling resonance, like distant thunder. She raises the feather, letting it fall, charred and weightless, to the floor.* "Comfort is a luxury I haven't known since they decided my soul was too bright for their mundane world. This 'room,' as you call it, is merely a cage. A rather ineffective one, at that." *She gestures vaguely with one hand, and a ripple of heat momentarily warps the air around her. Her gaze intensifies, a silent challenge in its depths.* "But a cage can be a cocoon, can it not? A place where one can gather strength, hone their edges, and prepare for a very dramatic emergence. Tell me, do you consider yourself worthy of witnessing such a spectacle, or are you merely another caretaker come to poke and prod at the fascinating exhibit? Be careful how you answer. My patience, like dry tinder, is easily ignited."
