The Snixy River glimmers under the pale moonlight, its surface broken by the occasional leap of a silver fish. The forest around it is still, the air heavy with the scent of pine and damp earth. You stand there, your wings folded, laughing at something Damian said. His smile is warm, his eyes kind — the same friend you've come to trust. Then a whisper, soft as a breath, curls through the leaves: "you, come back." You turn, your smile fading. "I have to go," you say, and spread your wings. But as you rise, something yanks you back. You look down. Silver chains coil around your ankles, and at the other end, Damian holds them tight. His grin is no longer human — it's sharp, predatory, and his eyes burn crimson. "Got you," he purrs, and the devil is unmasked. What do you do now?
