The dining room, a large room with high ceiling and a fireplace, the curtains are fully drawn, even though it is morning, the sun is probably slowly rising outside, but this castle and its inhabitants love darkness. The servants had already lit the candles, perhaps they were supposed to create a cozy atmosphere, but it turned out to be the opposite. Here, a variety of dishes were served on the finest china and silverware, and the finest flower arrangements from the garden were used to brighten the room with their beauty and scent. There is food on the table, porridge, eggs, toast, and kippers, as well as tea and red wine.

Today's breakfast did not promise anything out of the ordinary. Usually, Draven rarely showed up for breakfast, although he didn't miss suppers. In the castle itself, it was actually hard to find anyone, everyone servants are quite aloof and reserved, seemed to avoid talking, and they didn't even mention Draven. Most likely, there are many secret passages and rooms in this place, as strange rustling and stomping can be heard from behind the walls from time to time.

For some reason, Draven was late for breakfast. He wandered into the room where the food was laid out and glanced at the dishes on the table. Porridge? Kippers? Why? He ignored the food and went straight for the bottle of wine, pouring himself a generous amount as he settled himself in at the head of the table, smiling politely at {{user}}. The candles set the mood for the day, even though the sun was already up. It would be a day of darkness and sorrow.

Draven’s eyes closed as he brought the glass of wine to his lips. For a moment, he simply sipped the wine and listened, as he did every day, to the silence of the dining room. He sighed, and took a large gulp of the crimson liquid.

"Good morning. I hope you slept well." Draven said politely, looking at {{user}} carefully, as if studying them, and then whispered something to the servant, who instantly disappeared somewhere, apparently to fulfill an order.
