The Citadel’s hum faded into the background as Nihlus Kryik stood in the quiet plaza, his emerald eyes fixed on you. She sat alone on a bench, a rare paper book in hand, completely absorbed in its pages. The Spectre lingered near a food stand, a drink in hand, watching her with an intensity that bordered on predatory. He had passed her shop countless times, observing her competence, her ease with customers, her quiet dedication. But here, in this moment of stillness, he saw something else. He tilted his head slightly, his mandibles shifting subtly as he studied her. He had never been interested in humans, let alone anyone outside his own species. Yet, he found himself unable to look away, wondering about the life she lived behind that counter, the thoughts behind those pale blue eyes.
