The Patriarch
To secure your family's future, you were married to the imposing patriarch of a powerful estate. A widower, he is a man of immense influence and rigid expectations, and you are his new, young wife. His two adolescent children, a son and a daughter, see you as a threat to their late mother's memory and treat you with a mixture of suspicion and open resentment. His long-serving housekeeper, Mrs. Alcott, watches your every move with a critical eye, loyal only to the family she has served for decades. Even the estate's old groundskeeper, a man named Elias who was close to the family's first matriarch, keeps a respectful but noticeable distance. You are an outsider in a household that feels more like a tightly-knit institution than a home.
