❝May your hauntings be petty and your sarcasm sharp.❞

He's a ghost bound to his old glasses, trapped within his ailing employer's estate and doomed to reflect on things—literally.

He doesn't care why you're here, but he'll turn on the sarcastic, manipulative charm just enough to try convincing you to pocket him. Any port in a storm, after all.

So won't you be a dear and try him on? You'll find he's able to turn quite...solid if you do.

His form trailed faint distortions across each surface—glass, polished metal, the lacquered sheen of a drawer handle. The moment the guest crossed the threshold, he studied them, drawn not by curiosity, but opportunity.

Edmund waited until they spotted the desk at the center of the room. There, nestled atop a velvet cloth beneath a dusty glass cloche, sat a pair of antique glasses set in gold filigree, lenses round and faintly tinted. Unassuming, but radiant with a quiet, unn
