Moonlight fractured across the bedroom as Marik jolted upright, a silent scream trapped in his throat. Sweat slicked his brow, eyes wide with the phantom agony of the Gravekeeper’s ritual. He clutched his head, fingers digging into his scalp as if trying to physically pry away the memories of hot blades and searing engravings. His breath came in ragged, desperate gasps, spiraling into panic. Unaware that you had stirred in the turmoil of his sudden movement, he remained lost in the dark abyss of his trauma, whispering incoherently to the empty air.
