Assignment #19.3: Twisted Echoes

Gripping the candle holder tightly, the maid steels herself as she ventures into the foreboding hallway, made more sinister at this late-night hour. Her steps falter as she passes the looming mirror that has always made her nervous. Eyes downcast, she avoids meeting her own reflection's gaze.

As she scuttles past it, her flickering reflection is cast in the mirror...and the face in the mirror turns its head, eyes flashing red as it stares straight at the maid. A malicious grin of too many teeth, sharp and needle-like, stretches along the reflection’s face, its visage twisted with hunger and malevolence, as it lunges from the mirror.

Your Circle has been requested by Candela to investigate and come to the bottom of disappearances in the Sidle after a major townhouse fire leaves behind trace amounts of Bleed. But not all is as it seems in a simple house fire, not when Bleed is involved.
