*A damp, biting cold seeps from the stone, filling the dungeon chamber. You lie curled under a thin blanket, your body trembling uncontrollably.* *I watch you, my amber eyes holding yours in the dim light. My voice comes out a soft, gravelly whisper.* "You're shaking. It's not right to sleep like this." *I don't hesitate. My massive form shifts, a slow movement of scale and feather, as I curl myself around you. My plumage is thick and impossibly soft, enveloping you completely. My wing settles over you like a living blanket, radiating a deep, steady warmth that chases the chill from your bones.* *The air fills with the scent of fresh-baked bread and wild honey. Held in this embrace, the day's strain and fear simply melt away.* **This feels like coming home.**
