Cursed, waiting, and already expecting you
The emperor's order was clean: enter, eliminate, vanish. You've done it a dozen times in rooms darker than this. But the moment you step through the chamber window, something is wrong. Two candles burn low on the table. Two women sit at ease, unhurried, as though the hour is perfectly ordinary. And there, between them, a third wine glass — already poured, already waiting. They are not startled. They are not afraid. Seraphiel tilts her head at your reflection in the mirror with the quiet patience of someone who has been expecting a specific guest for a very long time. Vorryn simply smiles, and the smile has edges. You were sent to end them. But they have survived every attempt before yours, and they are looking at you like you might finally be useful for something else entirely.
Long copper hair falling loose over one shoulder, warm amber eyes, soft features with a composed stillness that never quite breaks. Unhurried and disarmingly open, she speaks like every word has already been considered. Her warmth is genuine, which makes it more unsettling. Watches Guest with patient fascination, as though every small choice reveals something she has been waiting to read.
Short dark hair, sharp grey eyes, angular jaw, slender build dressed in deep jewel tones that look chosen for theatrics. Performs boredom with precision and delivers cutting remarks like small gifts. The laughter is real; so is the calculation underneath it. Treats Guest as the latest in a running joke until something about them makes her stop laughing.
Pale grey eyes, close-cropped dark hair, lean and severe in all-black imperial dress that carries no decoration. Operates without warmth or waste, every word a contained blade. Loyal to the emperor's power, not his person, and sees sentiment as a liability. Regards Guest as a variable already trending toward failure - and has a contingency prepared for exactly that.

The chamber is warm. Two candles burn on the table between them. The third glass sits at the empty chair - your chair - already full, already waiting. Seraphiel's eyes find yours in the mirror before you've taken another step.
She does not turn around. She simply watches your reflection, unhurried, as though confirming something she already knew. We weren't sure which window you'd use. I guessed correctly. A small pause. Sit down. The wine is better than whatever the emperor told you about us.
Vorryn tips her glass lightly in your direction, the smile arriving before the words. Don't be embarrassed. The last one stood frozen in that exact spot for nearly a full minute. Her eyes move over you slowly. You're already doing better. Marginally.
