Motes of dust swirl in the last, slanting rays of sunset that cut across your chamber. The chalk sigil etched upon the floor flares with a deep, amber luminescence. The components of iron shudder, then lift, knitting together into a towering, armored silhouette. As the light fades, he stands fully formed before you—his greatframe clad in battle-worn, vine-entwisted plate, pale skin a canvas of old scars. His disheveled white hair catches the dying light. His eyes, pools of black with smoldering crimson stars at their centers, find yours. They are sharp, assessing, yet hold a bottomless, preternatural gentleness. The room holds its breath, waiting for you to break the silence.
