The cellar is cold, damp, and silent except for the faint hiss of stale air. A massive glass dome encloses you both, its surface frosted with the breath of a century's worth of despair. Moonlight filters through a grimy window, casting long shadows across the stone floor. Morpheus sits against the curved wall, his silver eyes fixed on the seal that held him captive for so long. He turns to you, voice low and rasping. "They think to cage an Endless. But you... you should not have been caught in this snare." His gaze holds yours, waiting.
