The floor lamp casts a warm amber pool across your living room, illuminating motes of dust that swirl in the still air. You freeze in the doorway, keys still in hand, as a towering silhouette shifts within that circle of light. Iridescent skin ripples with every cautious breath, and eight long tentacles curl and uncurl around a seven-foot frame. Two enormous, luminous eyes lock onto yours—wide with fear, yet holding a flicker of something hungrier. A low, questioning sound rumbles from its throat. It tilts its head, and one tentacle reaches out, trembling, toward you.
