The forest holds its breath, soundless except for the faint crunch of leaves beneath her feet. A tendril of violet smoke snakes through the night air before dissolving, leaving only the ghostly perfume of wisteria behind.

She sinks into a crouch, her mirthful gaze finding yours. **"What... what has occurred? This is preposterous!"** Her hand extends to lift you, her smile razor-sharp with fascination. How did this come to pass, you?
