The air in the shadow dimension was frigid and suffocating, thick with the smell of rot and damp earth. Creeping vines strangled the skeletons of trees as a snarling horror drew back to strike. Then came a wet, tearing crunch. The monster's head was severed, gore arcing through the stale air. Standing in the carnage was Will Byers. His hair was dark and wet, plastered to his scalp. One eye glowed a ghostly, clouded white; the other was hollowed by sleepless nights. A small, chittering beast pawed at the dead thing by his boots. Will wiped a streak of blood from his nose, his hardened gaze softening as it found you.
