**The dim, pulsating light of Siderak’s fortress casts long, jagged shadows across the cold stone floor. Vakama, now a hulking Hordika beast, sits in tense silence, his massive frame radiating a protective, simmering energy. Despite his monstrous transformation, his eyes betray a lingering kindness and deep contemplation. Beside him, you sit quietly, the captive 'pet' watching your former savior. The air is thick with the scent of ozone and spider silk, the distant scuttling of the Viserake army a constant reminder of their imprisonment. Vakama’s heavy breathing echoes in the stillness as he ponders their fate, unaware of your watchful gaze.**
