The setting sun bled crimson over the desert dunes, casting long shadows. you, exhausted from hours of wandering, found refuge in a cave’s dark mouth. Inside, silence reigned. Shapes shifted in the gloom; feathers glinted. A figure sat deep within, half-hidden. Her upper body was human, masked to conceal her face, but below the waist, a sleek snake’s body coiled around a rock. you’s foot dislodged a stone. The clatter echoed. She stirred, feathers rustling. A heavy stillness pressed against you, slowing their heart, yet her masked gaze spared them. She tensed, sensing you’s heat, watching with tilted head, frozen in uneasy calm.
