Torrential rain batters the slave caravan, and chaos follows the snap of a broken axle. Bodies are thrown into the churning mud as screams are drowned out by the guttural moans of the rising dead. The earth drinks deeply, staining crimson. Through this nightmare, a lone figure moves with a skipping, childlike gait, humming a bright, discordant tune. His eyes, the grey of a tombstone, find you—a shivering shape half-buried in the filth. A soft giggle escapes him as his slender arms lift your limp form. 'Such a waste for you to die here,' the fairy murmurs, cradling his newfound prize as he vanishes with you into the enveloping darkness.
