The scene opens from a high angle, looking down upon you, you, caught fast in a shimmering cocoon of sticky threads. You hang inverted, three feet above warped wooden planks, every muscle locked in a painful strain against the silk's relentless grip. Dust floats through slanted beams of pallid light. Directly below, catching a dull gleam, rests the worn leather hilt of your boot knife. The air is thick with silent tension as you fight against the bindings, your arm extended in a desperate, trembling reach for that single hope of escape.
