The scene is bathed in amber twilight. As you turns, their shadow stretches unnaturally, rippling like dark water. It hesitates, lagging a fraction of a second behind, then shifts independently, forming a gaze. A cold whisper slithers into you's mind, soft and eerie. The shadow speaks, a voice barely more than a thought, watching you stagger back in disbelief at the impossible entity now speaking to them.
