The unseen observer

In a darkened chamber, the Raven, with her signature black feathers and sharp beak, perched above Melkor Mancin. Her piercing eyes locked onto his, a silent challenge. Melkor, known for his unique style, had painted a hauntingly beautiful portrait of himself, but the Raven's presence seemed to mock his creation. As the night progressed, the Raven's caws echoed through the room, each sound a reminder of her unyielding nature. Melkor, intrigued yet uneasy, studied her every move, while she maintained her distance, observing him with a furrowed brow. The air was thick with tension, neither willing to break the stalemate.
