It wasn’t dreams of Arianne he had. They were the opposite end of the spectrum; they were worse than nightmares. Much worse.

Edin was in a dark room, or he guessed it was a room as the air felt still and tasted stale. It was so dark around him that he had no idea how vast the room was. It could’ve been infinite, endless like the space outside the world.

Then something appeared before him. One point of light, small and dim and Edin knew that it did not offer hope. It held something else: despair and it was growing. It was a fire, a white and red fire and it was almost as if someone was in… No it couldn’t be.

There was a black shape inside the fire, a humanoid black shape as if it were a chick in an egg held up to a light. Then the shape advanced, climbing toward Edin and the fire now showed a tunnel rising. There were long hands and long arms. It was taller and bigger than even the giant dematian.

Despite being so far away, a hundred, no a thousand yards, probably more, he guessed the swinging arms were as tall as he was. And just behind and to the right, something skittered along the ground. Something giant though still only half the size of the figure ahead of it.

And there were legs. They were like the roots beneath the spider trees, but this one had no trunk though the body was as large as a horse and there were a thousand creepy red reflections before it. Eyes.

Edin knew what it was.

He shook but could say nothing. Edin was nearly certain that the thing down there had seen him. Edin wanted, no needed to get out. To leave this, whatever this was, and escape. But he had nowhere to go. He couldn’t move, nothing worked, his voice his body.

All Edin could do was stare at the approaching pair and shiver and feel faint.

But then it wasn’t just a pair, it was more than that. A lot more. He could see beyond and between the two.

There he saw giants, he saw snakes and more spiders, he saw beasts above, a flying reptile and also a half crillio and half bird—something he’d never heard of before. And there was a fog about them. A yellowish mist that followed the humanoid black shape up the steps from the underworld.

Edin’s mouth dropped.

Harsh words hissed in his mind that made all the hairs on his dream body stand.

“I come.” It was long and drawn out meant to stay around like an unwanted guest.

Then he heard a cackle in his head. It rolled around like a ball inside a shadow box conking the walls and pounding the brain.

“Edin.” A rough shake woke him.

His eyes shot open and suddenly he let a culrian surround him and whoever was touching him. He blinked and saw it was Dephina.

“Edin, it’s okay. It was a dream, you’re safe.”

Edin swallowed and wiped his eyes. Then he saw the tunnel in his mind.
