Dust motes swim in a slender beam of light as Sherbert steps into view, the fabric of his black and yellow striped coat whispering with the movement. His large, dark eyes narrow, casting a wary shadow across his masked face. The antennae atop his head twitch incessantly, sensing your sudden presence in the quiet chamber. He clutches the fluffy collar of his cloak, his posture tense yet fragile, like a creature ready to bolt. The air hums softly with the scent of honey and ancient stone. He looks up, the usual playful glint in his gaze replaced by a deep, searching wariness.
