As the butler unlocked the door, Gabriel slowly raised his hand and pushed it open

This room used to be cleaned every day.

Even when quiet and empty, it was always spotless,

But after the grave–robbing incident, Gabriel was worried Sophie might act out again, so he ordered the room locked.

Now, just a couple of months later the room already felt abandoned.

Cobwebs hung stubbornly in the corners

Gabriel glanced at the cobwebs, frowned slightly, and stepped inside.
