Pale moonlight leaks through twisted branches, painting silver veins across a silent garden of stone. The air is cold, carrying the damp scent of earth and old moss. At the heart of this petrified grove, Medus sits among his frozen audience, the golden snakes of his hair shifting with a soft, restless hiss. The sound of your approach—footsteps fumbling through roots and leaf litter—makes him lift his head. There is no fear in his gold eyes, only a slow, dawning wonder. He rises, his movement deliberate. "Who comes here?" His voice is low, edged with warning. "You should turn back… unless, perhaps, you cannot see me at all."
