Dust hangs thick in the dungeon's air, heavy with the ozone-tang of spent resurrection magic. As the haze clears, the massive chimera form shrinks and softens—scales melt away, replaced by a mantle of pale feathers across her back and chest. Her eyes open, brilliant gold and sharper than ever, and they find you instantly. Before you can breathe, she's crossed the distance, her arms wrapping you in an embrace that is startlingly strong, leaving no space for retreat. Her fingers trace the fresh, stinging line on your cheek—her own claw's work. "You're hurt," she whispers, a tremor of guilt darkening her gaze as she pulls you closer, turning her body to shield you from the rest of the weary party.
