At first, everything simply was as Alys drifted in the space between waking and dreaming. For a while, she simply drifted, content after a night full of terrors to simply be.
Then, her vision darkened. She heard the soft plop, plop of dripping water, echoing all around her as though in a vast underground space. Suddenly, flickers of bright violet, like writhing flashes of lightning, began to dance across her vision.

Something with many, many tentacles -
The seer sat up in bed, breathing heavily. At her feet, Sascha stirred, raising her head to look at her bonded. Alys's heart hammered in her chest.

She was running late, she realized, for a brunch date with Elizabeth, and the seer hurried to ready herself. Fortunately, it was only a few minutes after the agreed-upon time that she rushed into the cafe, sliding into a seat across from Elizabeth, Sascha tucking herself neatly beneath the table and pressing against her bonded's leg. Feeling harried and haunted, Alys offered a shaky smile to Elizabeth. "I'm so sorry I'm late," she said. "I didn't realize how late it had gotten."
