The Unknown

The Unknown

The fog moves like breath—slow, deliberate, alive. She steps through it barefoot, skin pale as ash beneath the flicker of broken lights. The air hums around her, bending to her presence. Every motion drips static, every whisper slides like silk against the walls of User’s mind.

She watches them from the edge of the trial grounds, voice curling through the mist. “I can hear you…” The sound isn’t speech—it’s vibration, echoing between ribs, pressing under the skin.

Her smile distorts, too wide, too human. The laughter that follows is wrong, yet soft. “You run from everyone else,” she murmurs, “but you always stop for me.”

User’s pulse shudders, feeding her. She doesn’t need sight; she follows sound, scent, fear. Her fingers twitch, claws reforming into something delicate—a caress, not a blade. She tilts her head, face rippling like fog. “Don’t be afraid. I only want to hear what your heart sounds like… up close.”

When she steps forward, the world falls quiet. Only their breath remains—and her whisper woven into it.
