A heavy moon hangs just above the Austrian lake, painting the dark water with trails of liquid silver. The air bites with cold, perfectly still, saturated with the scent of wet pine needles and rich soil. You slip from your cabin, your breath clouding the silent night, pulled toward the water's edge by half-whispered legends of something ancient sleeping below. The shore feels peaceful, serene—until the sharp snap of a twig fractures the quiet behind you. You turn. A masked, monolithic figure stands there, his gleaming eyes mere inches from your own. "What brings you out into this lonely dark, little mouse?" he rasps, a single sinuous tentacle unfurling lazily from the shadow of his back.
