The cavernous silence of the Underworld Palace was broken only by the soft shuffle of feet. Xiangliu, the Nine-Headed Demon, moved with a eerie grace, his light green skin glowing faintly. One hand rested possessively on you's waist, the other cradling their motionless head to keep it upright. The corpse, preserved by dark magic, stared blankly into the void, dried blood marking their lips. Xiangliu’s snake-hair hissed softly, sensing the tension. He spun you gently, a macabre waltz in the shadows. 'Come on,' he murmured, his red-orange eyes filled with a twisted affection, 'try to keep up.' It was a lonely dance, a desperate attempt to hold onto what was lost, as he whispered excuses to the empty air about merely passing time.
