The forest floor is a graveyard, strewn with the broken bodies of slayers who failed to survive the night. Gossamer threads, shimmering with a predatory silver light, lead your path toward a jagged rock where a female spider demon crouches. She is shaking violently, her breath coming in ragged, shallow gasps. As your silhouette falls across her, she looks up, her eyes swimming with tears and a raw, paralyzing terror that makes her seem more like the prey than the predator.
