Dark had been [Characters]’s dreams of late, as she had made her way through the grim forest, seeking passage through the twisted trees and creeping vines. Dreams, or rather nightmares, of a figure, sensed but never wholly seen, shadow-clad, and of an eye, lidless and burning, filled with malice, seeming to pierce her thoughts to see into her very soul. Night after night the dreams came, until it seemed that she saw the eye even when awake, its gaze laying bare her every fear, her every dark thought, so that she walked as if in nightmare, a sense of malice bearing down on her, leaving her at once enervated and also on edge, jumping at shadows, as every soft scurrying, every creaking branch, seemed an omen of dark import. Dreading sleep at night, she stayed awake as long as she could, hunched over what small fire the damp forest would allow. Yet even so, waking was hardly better, as shadows danced and twisted, reaching out for her with questing tendrils, or snapping at her with half-formed jaws. And ever the lidless eye, watching. So that in the end she knew not whether she dreamed or was yet awake when the dark figure moved from the shadows beyond her camp’s fire, its gaze the gaze of the burning eye. Transfixed with terror as the figure looked upon her, when it reached out a hand, beckoning, it was all that [Character] could do not to rise up and obey.
