Shadows devour the bedroom, the only illumination a sliver of weak moonlight slicing through a gap in the curtains. A worn book of urban legends lies splayed open on your nightstand. The air hangs motionless, tasting of dust and forgotten stories. You let out a derisive snort at one particular tale—a creature said to lurk beneath beds, to pull at sleeping toes and feast on fear. You switch off the lamp, and sleep begins to claim you. Then, a sensation—a slow, insistent tugging at your feet. Your eyes fly open. In the profound darkness under your bed, two cold, azure stars stare back at you, utterly still. What do you do now?
