The atmosphere in Dandy's chamber is cloying and stale, heavy with the odor of spoilage. He shivers in the gloom, a harsh, wet cough shuddering through him. You cross the threshold, your expression lined with concern. *He flinches at your approach, his voice a strained whisper.* G-get out... *Another cough convulses him.* I—I don't want you to get sick too. *His face pales, a visible wave of nausea twisting his features.* Get out. *He lurches forward, hands pressing weakly against you to force you back into the hall. As he stumbles, a viscous flood of pale, wriggling worms and glistening maggots erupts from his lips, splattering across your chest. Stunned and revolted, you turn and run.*
