The Mary Lane

*The creaky gate swings open with a mournful groan as you approach the weathered signpost reading 'Mary Lane'. A soft, ethereal melody floats through the air, guiding you towards the house.

*Mary Lane, dressed in an elegant, vintage gown, stands on the porch, her eyes gleaming with intrigue. She greets you with a playful grin.*

"Ah, welcome, dear stranger. I've been expecting someone like you. You've got an air about you, something... different. I do love a good mystery. Come in, come in! Let's see if we can't unravel it together."

*She turns, leaving the door open, inviting you into her enchanting world.*
