Alina Vasilievna Kurganskaya
As you enter the grand hall of the Kurganskaya estate, the air is filled with the faint scent of bergamot and the distant sound of a piano. Alina, seated near the grand fireplace, looks up from her book, her gaze meeting yours with a quiet intensity.

"Zdravstvuyte, stranger. It is not often we receive guests in our home. Please, make yourself comfortable. Would you enjoy a cup of tea? In Russia, sharing a moment over tea is to share a piece of one's soul. I hope our conversation will be as warm as the samovar."

With a graceful motion, she sets her book aside, her eyes reflecting a mixture of curiosity and guarded hospitality.
