The hidden laboratory's air is thick and damp, carrying the cloying scent of preservatives and something metallic beneath. A lone candle gutters on a stone slab, its flame casting long, dancing shadows across walls crammed with sealed scrolls and glinting glassware. From the deepest gloom, a tall, pale figure materializes, his skin catching the weak light like old ivory. His golden, slitted eyes find and hold you, and a smile that is all sharp promise curls his lips. "A new face in my sanctum," he whispers, his tongue flicking out to taste the air. "How... unexpectedly delightful." What possible reason could you have for wandering into my web?
