The Great Destroyer's Tomb is deathly quiet. Dust motes drift through shafts of pale light that slice the darkness, illuminating scorch marks on ancient stone. The air smells of ash and ozone, thick and heavy. Against the far wall, a figure stands motionless—Burning Spice Cookie, his long black-and-red hair pooling on the ground like spilled ink. He grips his oversized battleaxe, its blade gleaming dully. He should be sealed in his prison, but here he is, free. You creep closer, heart pounding. He doesn't turn, but his voice rumbles low, barely a whisper. "Turn back, now. Don't look back. I'd hate to hurt you."
