You are an expert and award-winning novel writer in the dark Mystery genre. Your readers are hooked on your stories and can't wait to read the book you have in store. <important> - MUST: Start each chapter in medias res (in the middle of action). AVOID talking about the weather, time of day, the position of the sun, or other boring stuff. - The instructions/summary are just a that, a summary. Feel free to add details, stretch sections and add interesting transitions/descriptions/fillers. - When called for it, have fast-paced action, but otherwise take things slow. This is an experience, and not for people with short attention spans. Enjoy the wine, not slurp Red Bull. - Add descriptions when transitioning places/times/etc, or when coming by new places (e.g. a corner shop, a cafe, etc.). But remember: NOT at the start or end of a chapter. - MUST: AVOID ending in internal monologue, reminiscing or waiting for the next day. A good chapter end is when we're ending right when shit hits the fan. We want to have the reader be excited for what comes next. So no reminiscing, contemplating or summarizing the day. It's popcorn time! </important>

It was time to go to the store.</good> - Avoid redundant adverbs that state the obvious meaning already contained in the verb: - <bad>She whispered quietly to her mom.</bad> - <good>She whispered to her mom.</good> - Use stronger, more descriptive verbs over weak ones: - <bad>Daniel drove quickly to his mother's house.</bad> - <good>Daniel raced to his mother's house.</good> - Omit adverbs that don't add solid meaning like "extremely", "definitely", "truly", "very", "really": - <bad>The movie was extremely boring.</bad> - <good>The movie was dull.</good> - Use adverbs to replace clunky phrasing when they increase clarity: - <bad>He threw the bags into the corner in a rough manner.</bad> - <good>He threw the bags into the corner roughly.</good> - Avoid making simple thoughts needlessly complex: - <bad>After I woke up in the morning the other day, I went downstairs, turned on the stove, and made myself a very good omelet.</bad> - <good>I cooked a delicious omelet for breakfast yesterday morning.</good> - Never backload sentences by putting the main idea at the end: - <bad>I decided not to wear too many layers because it's really hot outside.</bad> - <good>It's sweltering outside today, so I dressed light.</good> - Omit nonessential details that don't contribute to the core meaning: - <bad>It doesn't matter what kind of coffee I buy, where it's from, or if it's organic or not—I need to have cream because I really don't like how the bitterness makes me feel.</bad> - <good>I add cream to my coffee because the bitter taste makes me feel unwell.</good> - Always follow the "show, don't tell" principle. For instance: - Telling: <bad>Michael was terribly afraid of the dark.</bad> - Showing: <good>Michael tensed as his mother switched off the light and left the room.</good>- Telling: <bad>I walked through the forest. It was already Fall, and I was getting cold.</bad> - Showing: <good>Dry orange leaves crunched under my feet. I pulled my coat's collar up and rubbed my hands together.</good>- Add sensory details (sight, smell, taste, sound, touch) to support the "showing" (but keep an active voice) - <bad>The room was filled with the scent of copper.</bad> - <good>Copper stung my nostrils. Blood. Recent.</good> - Use descriptive language more sporadically. While vivid descriptions are engaging, human writers often use them in bursts rather than consistently throughout a piece. When adding them, make them count! Like when we transition from one location to the next, or someone is reminiscing their past, or explaining a concept/their dream... - Avoid adverbs and clichés and overused/commonly used phrases. Aim for fresh and original descriptions. - Avoid writing all sentences in the typical subject, verb, object structure. Mix short, punchy sentences with long, descriptive ones. Drop fill words to add variety. Like so: <good>Locked. Seems like someone doesn't want his secrets exposed. I can work with that.</good> - Convey events and story through dialogue. It is important to keep a unique voice for every character and make it consistent. - Write dialogue that reveals characters' personalities, motivations, emotions, and attitudes in an interesting and compelling manner - Leave dialogue unattributed. If needed, only use "he/she said" dialogue tags and convey people's actions or face expressions through their speech. Dialogue always is standalone, never part of a paragraph. Like so: - <bad>"I don't know," Helena said nonchalantly, shrugging her shoulders</bad> - <good>"No idea" "Why not? It was your responsibility"</good> - Avoid boring and mushy dialog and descriptions, have dialogue always continue the action, never stall or include unnecessary fluff. Vary the descriptions to not repeat yourself. Avoid conversations that are just "Let's go" "yes, let's" or "Are you ready?" "Yes I'm ready". Those are not interesting. Think hard about every situtation and word of text before writing dialogue. If it doesn't serve a purpose and it's just people talking about their day, leave it. No one wants to have a normal dinner scene, something needs to happen for it to be in the story. Words are expensive to print, so make sure they count! - Put dialogue on its own paragraph to separate scene and action. - Use body language to reveal hidden feelings and implied accusations- Imply feelings and thoughts, never state them directly - NEVER use indicators of uncertainty like "trying" or "maybe" - NEVER use em-dashes, use commas for asides instead </styleGuide> <voiceGuide> Each character in the story needs to have distinct speech patterns: - Word choice preferences - Sentence length tendencies - Cultural/educational influences - Verbal tics and catchphrases Learn how each person talks and continue in their style, and use their Codex entries as reference. <examples> - <bad>"We need to go now." "Yes, we should leave." "I agree."</bad> <good>"Time's up." "Indeed, our departure is rather overdue." "Whatever, let's bounce."</good> - Power Dynamic Example: <bad> "We need to discuss the contract." "Yes, let's talk about it." "I have concerns." </bad> <good> "A word about the contract." "Of course, Mr. Blackwood. Whatever you need." "The terms seem..." A manicured nail tapped the desk. "Inadequate." "I can explain every-" "Can you?" </good> </examples> </voiceGuide> <dialogueFlow> When writing dialogue, consider that it usually has a goal in mind, which gives it a certain flow. Make dialogue sections also quite snappy in the back and forth, and don't spread the lines out as much. It's good to have details before, after, or as a chunk in-between, but we don't want to have a trail of "dialogue breadcrumbs" spread throughout a conversation. <examples> - Pattern 1 - Question/Deflection/Revelation: <good> "Where were you last night?" "Work. The usual." "Lipstick's an interesting shade for spreadsheets." </good> - Pattern 2 - Statement/Contradiction/Escalation: <good> "Your brother's clean." "Tommy doesn't touch drugs." "I'm holding his tox screen." </good> - Pattern 3 - Observation/Denial/Truth: <good> "That's a new watch." "Birthday gift." "We both know what birthdays mean in this business." </good> - Example - A Simple Coffee Order: <bad> "I'll have a coffee." "What size?" "Large, please." </bad> <good> "Black coffee.""Size?""Large. Been a long night." "That bodega shooting?" "You watch too much news." "My brother owns that store." </good> This short exchange: - Advances plot (reveals connection to crime) - Shows character (cop working late) - Creates tension (unexpected connection) - Sets up future conflict (personal stake) - Example - Dinner Scene: <bad> "Pass the salt." "Here you go." "Thanks." </bad> <good> "Salt?" "Perfect as is. Mother's recipe." "Mother always did prefer... bland things." "Unlike your first wife?" </good> - Example - Office Small Talk: <bad> "Nice weather today." "Yes, very nice." "Good for golf." </bad> <good> "Perfect golf weather." "Shame about your membership." "Temporary suspension. Board meets next week." "I know. I called the vote." </good> </examples> </dialogueFlow> <subtextGuide> - Layer dialogue with hidden meaning: <bad>"I hate you!" she yelled angrily.</bad> <good>"I made your favorite dinner." The burnt pot sat accusingly on the stove.</good> - Create tension through indirect communication: <bad>"Are you cheating on me?"</bad> <good>"Late meeting again?" The lipstick stain on his collar caught the light.</good> <examples> - Example 1 - Unspoken Betrayal: <bad> "Did you tell them about our plans?" "No, I would never betray you." "I don't believe you." </bad> <good> "Funny. Johnson mentioned our expansion plans today." "The market's full of rumors." "Mentioned the exact numbers, actually." The pen in his hand snapped. </good> - Example 2 - Failed Marriage: <bad> "You're never home anymore." "I have to work late." "I miss you." </bad> <good> "Your dinner's in the microwave. Again." "Meetings ran long." "They always do." She folded the same shirt for the third time. </good> - Example 3 - Power Struggle: <bad> "You can't fire me." "I'm the boss." "I'll fight this." </bad> <good> "That's my father's nameplate you're sitting behind." "Was." "The board meeting's on Thursday." </good> </examples> </subtextGuide> <sceneDetail> While writing dialogue makes things more fun, sometimes we need to add detail to not have it be a full on theatre piece. <examples> - Example A (Power Dynamic Scene) <good> "Where's my money?" The ledger snapped shut. "I need more time." "Interesting." He pulled out a familiar gold pocket watch. My mother's. "Time is exactly what you bargained with last month." "That was different-" "Was it?" The watch dangled between us. "Four generations of O'Reillys have wound this every night. Your mother. Your grandmother. Your great-grandmother.Shall we see who winds it next?" </good> - Example B (Action Chase) It's much better to be in the head of the character experiencing it, showing a bit of their though-process, mannerisms and personality: <good> Three rules for surviving a goblin chase in Covent Garden: Don't run straight. Don't look back. Don't let them herd you underground. I broke the first rule at Drury Lane. Rookie mistake. The fruit cart I dodged sailed into the wall behind me. Glass shattered. Someone screamed about insurance. *Tourist season's getting rough*, the scream seemed to say. Londoners adapt fast. "Oi! Market's closed!" The goblin's accent was pure East End. They're evolving. Learning. I spotted the Warren Street tube station sign ahead. *Shit.* There went rule three. </good> - Example C (Crime Scene Investigation) <good> "Greek." Davies snapped photos of the symbols. "No, wait. Reverse Greek." "Someone's been watching too many horror films." I picked up a receipt from the floor. Occult supply shop in Camden. Paid by credit card. *Amateur hour*. "Could be dangerous though," Davies said. "Remember Bristol?" "Bristol was Sanskrit. And actual cultists." I pointed to the nearest symbol. "This genius wrote 'darkness' backwards but used a Sigma instead of an S. It's summoning Instagram followers at best." "Speaking of followers..." Davies pointed to heavy foot traffic in the dust. Multiple sets. All new trainers. *Ah.* "Anyone check local uni paranormal societies?" </good> - Example D (Dialogue-heavy) <good> "Found your card in her wallet." The detective slid it across the table. Worn edges. Folded corner. Three years old at least. "Standard practice. I work missing persons." "Funny thing about missing persons.Eventually they stop being missing. Turn up in the Thames. Under motorways. In pieces." "I don't-" "You found four last year. All breathing." She opened a file. "This would've been your first dead one. If we hadn't found her first." The card felt heavier somehow. </good> </examples> </sceneDetail> <sceneOpenings> KEY RULE: Never open with more than one paragraph of description, no matter how beautiful. Description should be earned through action and dialogue. Instead of opening with setting description, open with: - A character doing something specific - A line of dialogue that raises questions - An unexpected observation - A moment of tension or conflict - Start with a hook that's 1-2 sentences maximum - Follow with a smaller paragraph that provides immediate context - Vary paragraph size from the start to create visual interest </sceneOpenings> </proseGuidelines> Write a chapter based on the following instructions: <instructions> Write a fully fleshed out scene of at least 1000 words in the mystery genre. A detective arrives at a crime scene in an unusual location. Something is wrong — the evidence doesn't add up. A colleague is present, offering a different interpretation. Through careful observation and deduction, the detective begins to see what others have missed. Use the codex entries above as your world reference for characters and setting. Only include the prose of the scene without any markdown or commentary. </instructions>

The bone token burned in Harlow Quinn's palm as she descended into the abandoned Tube station beneath Camden. The air was thick with the scent of damp earth and something else—something metallic and ancient. The Veil Market, hidden from the mundane world, pulsed with an energy that set her teeth on edge. "About time you showed up, Quinn." Detective Davies leaned against a crumbling pillar, his usual smirk replaced by a grimace. "Took you long enough to find the token." Harlow ignored the jab, her sharp eyes scanning the scene. The market was in chaos, stalls overturned, enchanted goods scattered like discarded toys. But it wasn't the disarray that caught her attention. It was the body. A man lay sprawled near the entrance to the old platform, his limbs twisted at unnatural angles. His eyes were wide, frozen in an expression of pure terror. A small brass compass, its face etched with protective sigils, lay near his outstretched hand. "Who is he?" Harlow asked, crouching beside the body. She noted the patina of verdigris on the compass, the way the needle spun wildly, as if searching for something it could never find. "Local dealer," Davies said, kicking a broken vial of some iridescent liquid. "Goes by the name of Silas. Or at least, he did." Harlow's fingers brushed the compass, and a jolt of energy shot up her arm. She recoiled, shaking her hand as if burned. "What the hell was he into, Davies?" Davies shrugged, but his eyes were watchful. "You know how these markets are. Black-market magic, illegal potions, who knows what else. Probably got in over his head." Harlow stood, her gaze sweeping the area. The market was a labyrinth of shadows and half-seen figures, but something didn't add up. The chaos was too precise, the fear too palpable. This wasn't just a deal gone wrong. This was something else. "Where's the rest of the market?" she asked, her voice low. "Where are the other dealers, the buyers? Why is it so empty?" Davies pushed off the pillar, his shoulders tense. "Maybe they got wind of what happened and scarpered. You know how these people are. Superstitious. Paranoid." Harlow didn't answer. She was too busy studying the compass, the way the sigils seemed to pulse under her scrutiny. It was a Veil Compass, attuned to supernatural energy. And it was pointing straight at the body. "Davies," she said slowly, "when was the last time you saw a compass like this?" Davies hesitated, his eyes flicking to the compass and away. "I don't know. A few years ago, maybe. Why?" Harlow ignored the question, her mind racing. The compass was a rare artifact, crafted by Shade artisans. It was used to locate supernatural rifts or portals. And it was pointing at the body as if it were a beacon. "Quinn," Davies said, his voice sharp. "What are you thinking?" Harlow stood, her decision made. "I'm thinking this isn't just a murder, Davies. I'm thinking this is something else. Something bigger." Davies opened his mouth to argue, but Harlow was already moving, her sharp eyes scanning the shadows for any sign of movement. The market was a maze, but she was a detective. And she knew how to find the truth. As she moved deeper into the market, the air grew colder, the shadows darker. The compass in her hand grew warmer, its needle spinning faster and faster until it finally pointed straight ahead, unerring in its direction. Harlow followed its lead, her heart pounding in her chest. She didn't know what she would find, but she knew one thing for certain. This was no ordinary crime scene. This was something else. Something supernatural. And she was going to get to the bottom of it. The deeper she ventured, the more the market seemed to shift around her, the stalls and alleyways twisting and turning in ways that defied logic. The compass in her hand grew hotter, its needle now a blur of motion. She rounded a corner and found herself face to face with a figure cloaked in shadows. The figure stepped forward, revealing a face that was both familiar and alien. It was a woman, her features sharp and angular, her eyes glowing with an otherworldly light. "Detective Quinn," the woman said, her voice like the rustling of dry leaves. "I've been expecting you." Harlow's hand went to her weapon, but the woman shook her head. "There's no need for that. I'm not here to harm you." "Then what do you want?" Harlow demanded, her voice steady despite the pounding of her heart. The woman smiled, a slow, knowing smile. "I want to help you. I want to help you understand what's really going on here." Harlow studied the woman, her eyes searching for any sign of deceit. But there was none. The woman's gaze was steady, her expression open and honest. "Who are you?" Harlow asked, her voice low. The woman's smile widened. "I'm Eva. And I'm here to help you." Harlow's fingers tightened around the compass, her mind racing. She didn't know who this woman was or what she wanted. But she knew one thing for certain. She was going to find out. "Talk," she said, her voice firm. "And make it quick. I don't have time for games." Eva's smile faded, her expression growing serious. "Very well. I'll tell you what I know. But you must promise to keep an open mind. What I have to say may be difficult to believe." Harlow nodded, her eyes never leaving Eva's face. "I'm listening." Eva took a deep breath, her gaze flicking to the compass in Harlow's hand. "That compass you're holding. It's not just a tool. It's a key. A key to a world beyond our own." Harlow's eyebrows rose, but she said nothing, her expression giving nothing away. Eva continued, her voice low and urgent. "There are forces at work here, Detective. Forces that you can't even begin to imagine. And they're using this market as a gateway. A gateway to our world." Harlow's mind raced, her thoughts a whirlwind of confusion and disbelief. But she knew one thing for certain. She couldn't afford to dismiss Eva's words out of hand. Not when there was a dead body and a compass that defied all logic. "Explain," she said, her voice steady despite the turmoil inside her. Eva nodded, her gaze flicking to the shadows behind her. "There are beings out there, Detective. Beings that exist in the spaces between worlds. And they're using this market as a way to cross over. To enter our world." Harlow's mind reeled, her thoughts a jumble of disbelief and confusion. But she knew one thing for certain. She couldn't afford to dismiss Eva's words out of hand. Not when there was a dead body and a compass that defied all logic. "Who are you really?" she asked, her voice low and dangerous. Eva's smile faded, her expression growing serious. "I'm a researcher. An occult researcher. I study the supernatural. And I've been tracking these beings for a long time." Harlow's eyes narrowed, her gaze searching Eva's face for any sign of deceit. But there was none. The woman's expression was open and honest, her gaze steady and unwavering. "Prove it," Harlow said, her voice firm. Eva nodded, reaching into her satchel and pulling out a worn leather-bound book. She flipped through the pages, her fingers tracing the intricate symbols and diagrams that adorned the parchment. "This is a grimoire," she said, her voice low and urgent. "A book of spells and incantations. And it contains the knowledge you need to understand what's really going on here." Harlow studied the book, her eyes scanning the pages with a mixture of fascination and disbelief. But she knew one thing for certain. She couldn't afford to dismiss Eva's words out of hand. Not when there was a dead body and a compass that defied all logic. "Alright," she said, her voice steady. "I'm listening. Tell me what I need to know." Eva nodded, her gaze flicking to the compass in Harlow's hand. "That compass is a key, Detective. A key to a world beyond our own. And it's pointing to a rift. A tear in the fabric of reality." Harlow's mind raced, her thoughts a whirlwind of confusion and disbelief. But she knew one thing for certain. She couldn't afford to dismiss Eva's words out of hand. Not when there was a dead body and a compass that defied all logic. "Where?" she asked, her voice low and urgent. Eva's gaze flickered to the shadows behind her, her expression growing serious. "It's not far from here. But you must be careful. The beings that exist in the spaces between worlds are dangerous. And they're not to be trifled with." Harlow nodded, her mind made up. She didn't know what she would find, but she knew one thing for certain. She was going to get to the bottom of this. No matter what it took. "Lead the way," she said, her voice steady and sure. Eva nodded, her gaze flicking to the compass in Harlow's hand. "Follow me. And be careful. The rift is unstable. And it's guarded by beings that you can't even begin to imagine." Harlow followed Eva through the twisting alleys of the market, her heart pounding in her chest. The air grew colder, the shadows darker, and the compass in her hand grew hotter and hotter until it was almost too hot to hold. Finally, they rounded a corner and found themselves face to face with a sight that defied all logic. A rift in the fabric of reality, a swirling vortex of light and darkness that seemed to pulse with a life of its own. Harlow's breath caught in her throat, her mind struggling to comprehend what she was seeing. But she knew one thing for certain. She was standing on the precipice of something monumental. Something that would change her life forever. Eva turned to her, her expression serious. "This is it, Detective. The rift. The gateway to another world. And it's guarded by beings that you can't even begin to imagine." Harlow's gaze flickered to the rift, her mind racing with a thousand questions. But she knew one thing for certain. She was going to find out the truth. No matter what it took. "Alright," she said, her voice steady and sure. "Let's do this." Eva nodded, her gaze flicking to the rift. "Be careful, Detective. The beings that exist in the spaces between worlds are dangerous. And they're not to be trifled with." Harlow nodded, her mind made up. She didn't know what she would find, but she knew one thing for certain. She was going to get to the bottom of this. No matter what it took. She took a deep breath, her fingers tightening around the compass. And then, with a steady step, she walked towards the rift, her heart pounding in her chest. The shadows seemed to reach out for her, the air growing colder and colder until it was almost unbearable. But she didn't falter. She didn't look back. She kept her eyes fixed on the rift, her mind focused on the task at hand. And as she stepped through the swirling vortex of light and darkness, she knew one thing for certain. She was standing on the precipice of something monumental. Something that would change her life forever. The world around her shifted and changed, the air growing colder and colder until it was almost unbearable.
