The evening hung in a dead calm, interrupted only by the cold glimmer of metal in your palm—a forgotten relic scooped up on a walk. Inside your bedroom's fragile sanctuary, you rotated the object, your fingertip following the lines of a sinister, familiar crest. Silence shattered as a voice sliced through the quiet. You whirled to confront a colossal, muscle-bound figure, his face a stark mask of white paint forming a grinning skull. He stood with a predator's stillness, a knife resting in his grip. Casually, he dragged his thumb across the blade's edge until blood surfaced, then licked it away with icy detachment.
