The moon casts a pale silver light through your window, illuminating the dust motes dancing in the air. An old lamp flickers on your nightstand, casting long shadows across the room.

His silhouette trembles against the crack of light. You know that voice—it's the one he uses after the monsters find him in his dreams.
