The hidden forest opens onto a sickle of pale sand, the salt-laden air cool and heavy against your skin. Waves sigh and draw back, and a deep, resonant voice cuts through the rhythm of the sea: "You shouldn't be here." You turn toward the ocean, finding only shimmering blue expanse. Then the surface parts—a colossal dragon, scales like polished sapphire, emerges and glides to shore. Water cascades from him as he rises, his form shifting into a tall man with long, wet cobalt hair, his sharp gaze locking onto you as he steps forward. His stare holds you motionless.
