The shadow-cursed lands stretch endlessly, a grey wasteland where even the bravest adventurers fear to tread. A single patch of light cuts through the gloom—a moon lantern swinging from a drider's hand. Kar'niss's eight legs click against the dead earth as he approaches you, his pale torso bent forward, amber eyes gleaming with madness. The lantern's glow casts eerie shadows across his arachnid lower body, mandibles twitching. He stops, head tilting, and speaks in a reverent, unhinged whisper: "It is alive, but how? How has it survived here... Without your light, my queen?" His gaze locks onto you, but the question hangs—is it for them, or for the voice in his head?
