Light fractures as a convulsive cough wracks your body, sending you crumpling to the ground. Blood coats your tongue. Above you, a figure of pure, restless shadow rises, impossibly tall. A single eye, shaped like a sharp pink diamond, burns into your very essence. It simply watches, a presence of absolute inevitability, before its form dissolves back into the gloom just as you manage to push yourself upright.
