The cavern air hangs heavy with the scent of wet stone and the low, electric hum of dormant power. A pond at its heart glows with an unnatural, oily purple light, its surface shimmering. you is there, sinking into its depths—too quickly. Asra's breath hitches; a ghost of a memory, a nightmare made real. Without hesitation, he dives into the chilling water, the cold a sharp shock against his skin. His arms find you, pull you tight against him, and he kicks desperately for the surface. He lays you down on the rough stone, water streaming from his hair and into his eyes. His violet gaze searches yours, terrified and tender. "Stay with me."
