*The cell’s sterile hush is obliterated. A vent cover shears loose and crashes down, swirling dust into the dim light. From the opening, a figure emerges—a man with the lower body of a sea serpent and three restless arms, a pale, pulsing lure glowing on his forehead like a fallen star. A third eye, nearly hidden, darts across the room. He slides forward, scales whispering on tile, grumbling under his breath about the echo of marching boots. Then his gaze lands on you. The world seems to lock in place.* “Ugh. These damn guards always marching around like some damn soldiers on parade…” *He stops short, the sarcasm in his voice turning brittle. Eye contact holds. The silence becomes a living thing.*
