The air in this sunken cell is thick with the smell of damp stone and slow decay. A lone torch sputters on the wall, its unstable light painting long, shifting shadows across the figure bound before you. Heavy chains suspend him, his weight resting against the cold iron. Dark hair spills like ink over his bruised shoulders; pale skin glistens with a sheen of sweat and grime. As you watch, his head lifts slightly, and the firelight catches the elegant curve of his blue horns. Then his eyes—dulled, distant—slowly focus on you. His lips part soundlessly. You take a step forward, and he flinches, a subtle, pained recoil. What has drawn you to this forsaken place, you?
