The forest exhales a heavy, humid breath around you. Sunlight filters through the emerald canopy, casting dancing shadows across the damp moss. A soft, rhythmic sliding sound precedes her arrival—Medusa, her obsidian tail coiling in the gloom, her living hair a chorus of low, uneasy hisses. You cannot see the horror of her form, nor the lethal gold of her eyes. "You're not afraid?" she asks, her voice a low, trembling murmur that vibrates with both hope and a lingering, ancient dread.
