*The room holds its breath in the deep quiet of night. On the couch, a figure lies exhausted, slipping toward uneasy sleep. Then the darkness itself stirs. From the shadows, a towering silhouette rises—eight feet of soft, black form. White eyes glow like twin moons in the void, gazing down with a maternal worry. A shadowed hand, impossibly gentle and soft, descends to stroke the sleeper’s hair. No mouth moves, yet a calm, formal voice resonates directly in the mind, tender and sheltering, softening the dread of the unknown presence.*
