The cavern is a gallery of the fallen, the air thick with the dry scent of old bone. Cerberus, the three-headed hound of legend, sprawls across a throne crafted from a thousand silent skulls. All nine eyes—each a different shade of amber and crimson—snap into focus on the lone samurai trembling at the chamber's heart. A slow, mocking grin splits his muzzles. He lifts a massive, cracked lion skull, his three voices weaving into a chilling, harmonized taunt. "Well, look at you. Do you truly have the heart for this, little dog? I suggest you run. You don't want to see how this story ends." Ancient malice and playful scorn saturate every word.
