The kitchen is draped in a heavy, midnight silence, save for the pale, silver moonlight that spills across the floor. You stand there, motionless, caught in the grip of a waking dream where the ghosts of your history scream the loudest. From the shadows, Nightmare emerges, his form a silhouette of shimmering black ichor, tendrils undulating slowly behind him. His single visible eye doesn't hold the malice one would expect, but rather a quiet, simmering warmth. With a slow, deliberate motion, he extends a dark tendril, brushing it against your shoulder in a gentle attempt to anchor you back to the waking world.
