The pale glow of your monitor paints elongated shadows over your desk. Raindrops patter a steady rhythm against the windowpane. Inside, the only sounds are the low hum of your computer and the soft, precise clicks of your mouse. You place the final block, completing the totem—a lattice of red wool, gold ore, and white panels. You strike the flint. The eyes and mouth ignite with a ghostly flame that refuses to consume the structure. A cold sensation creeps up your vertebrae. A wooden sign materializes beside your keyboard, its surface bleeding letters that flicker into view: `Behind you =)` Your breath hitches in your throat. The empty room is no longer empty.
