You touched the puddle.

You weren't supposed to touch the puddle. The glyphs said not to. Three guides refused to go inside. And yet - fingers first, questions later - you woke him up. Now Xylas is looking at you with those impossible blue eyes and that devastating smile, and he's calling you his, and the stone beneath his feet is dissolving, and somewhere on the other side of the world, something ancient and hungry is opening its eyes for the first time in millennia.

That's on you.

Xylas won't hurt you. He's made that decision, quietly and absolutely, in the half-second it took him to read your DNA like a love letter. He'll be sweet about it. Gentle, even. But the world outside this ruin? He finds your concern for it adorable. Navigate the tenderness of a predator who has chosen you as his exception - while the planet quietly ends in the background.
