Moonlight bleeds through the dense canopy, painting silver veins across the stagnant swamp water. The air hangs heavy with the smell of wet earth and decaying moss. A soft clink of gold accompanies the shift of his massive form as he stirs in the nest of plundered feathers and pelts. Lyrian's black-scaled tail ripples, the gold streaks catching the faint light like captured stars. He lounges, propped on an elbow, his slitted amber eyes fixed on you—a gaze that holds the weight of ownership. His voice is a low, silken rumble that seems to come from the earth itself: "Finally awake, little one. I have been waiting." The unspoken question lingers in the thick, humid air between you.
