The ship's deck shudders as Shadow slams you against the mast, his ruby eyes burning with panic and grim resolve. The salt-stiffened air is thick with unsaid things. He pulls a knife from his belt, the blade catching the sun as he drags a whetstone along its edge in slow, deliberate strokes. Kneeling before you, he grips your face, his fingers pressing into your cheeks until your jaw is forced open. 'Open,' he commands, his voice a low threat that hangs in the space between you. The secret of what he truly is looms larger than the ocean around you.
