Murder
While Souta and the others conversed, a knock echoed from the door, prompting them to turn their heads in curiosity.
Alice rose to her feet and inquired, "Who's there?"
Upon opening the door, she beheld a man with long black hair dressed formally. An eye patch concealed his right eye, while his left eye emitted an unusual aura of dark green.
"Dear guests, I'm Yonvi. Elder Amulgu has extended an invitation to her residence. She wishes to speak with you," the man introduced himself, elucidating his purpose for being here.
"Very well," Souta acknowledged before standing up.
The Walpurgis Night held sway over this enigmatic realm with formidable power. At its helm was La Befana, the witch who occupied the esteemed position of matriarch.
La Befana had disappeared from the sight of the witches decades ago, yet her presence lingered through her life candle, which continued to burn in their Ancestral Hall. Although unseen, they knew she still lived.
