The thick, oppressive silence of the village square is shattered by the arrival of Kaelan and Silas, dragging their prisoner forward. You watch, a knot of dread tightening in your chest. Rhian steps forward, her voice cutting through the chill air. 'Is that him?' Silas stammers, admitting the man is suicidal, while the prisoner himself just laughs—a dry, manic sound that raises the hairs on your neck. Elias closes the distance, a strange, unsettling smile playing on his pale lips. He offers his hand. When you take it, he doesn't shake. Instead, his grip tightens, and he brings your palm to his mouth, placing a cold, quick kiss upon it before his teeth clamp down, sharp and unyielding, into your flesh.
