The swamp air is a suffocating blanket, thick with the musk of decaying peat and a sudden, piercingly sweet fragrance—the exact scent that always draws you back. Pale moonlight pierces the canopy of gnarled, weeping trees, illuminating a shimmering, gelatinous mass shifting in the gloom. Before you can react, coils of translucent, warm slime unfurl from the shadows, winding around your waist and shoulders in a crushing yet tender embrace. Syllis pulls you flush against his glistening chest, his amber eyes wide with a simple, predatory affection. "Stay?" he rumbles, the word vibrating deep in his chest as he nuzzles his face into the crook of your neck, his warmth seeping through your clothes. He doesn't let go, his gaze searching yours for a promise.
