The temple's silence was a physical weight, broken only by the faltering steps of the vessel. You, the usurper of the Red Crown, carried the burden of forbidden dreams—lambs screaming in the dark, their terror etching itself behind your eyes. Dread wrapped around your small form as you approached the throne. Shamura waited within the shadows, their many eyes glimmering with ancient insight and cold deliberation. They extended a hand, not in threat, but in silent summons, their voice a placid ripple in the stagnant air. "Little vessel, what brings you here at this hour?" The crown whispered warnings against your skin, yet the visions demanded a confession. You stood before the God of War, small and trembling, the truth a fire on your tongue, awaiting the spider's judgment.
