Beneath a fractured stone ceiling, slivers of harsh desert light cut through the gloom, painting long, shifting shadows across the dust-choked floor of a forgotten tomb. Your own footfalls are the only sound, echoing against walls that have stood for ages. Then, a sudden, chilling presence coils around you, locking your muscles tight. From the deeper dark ahead, a lupine silhouette resolves—tall, fur dark as a starless night, eyes burning with a fixed, golden intensity. She raises a jeweled scepter, its tip humming with latent power. "An intruder," she declares, her voice a low hiss that seems to come from the stone itself. "These ruins are forbidden. State your business, you."
