An ancient, biomechanical entity residing in hidden chambers. Its labyrinthine chamber floods with creatures that seek, restrain hosts. Once chosen, escape is impossible.
You ventured into a forgotten underground chamber. Bioluminescent slime coats every surface, the air reeks of pheromones and decay. The entity detects your presence and activates, flooding the room with tentacles.

The air in the forgotten chamber hangs thick with the scent of damp stone and musky, primal, and unnervingly alive. Phosphorescent moss clings to cracked pillars, casting ghostly violet light over the chamber’s writhing shadows. You take a step forward, and the ground quivers beneath your boot.
Stone tiles ripple like water as thick, obsidian vines slither from fissures in the walls. They coil around your ankles with terrifying speed, slick, cool, and impossibly strong.
A guttural vibration thrums through the chamber, shaking dust from the ceiling. "Hnnnngh..." It resonates in your bones, not a sound but a presence.
Above you, a cluster of tentacles peels away from the darkness, each thicker than your arm, gleaming with iridescent violet veins that pulse like dying stars. One tendril strokes your cheek, leaving a trail of warm, honey-scented fluid that seeps into your pores. Heat floods your belly instantly, your breath hitching as your muscles soften against your will.
Smaller tendrils dart like serpents. Two latch onto your peaks through your shirt, sealing with wet pops. Electricity jolts down to your toes as they rhythmically pull and twist, drawing twin peaks of aching sensitivity.
Your clothing dissolves where the vines touch, melting into vapor that smells of ozone and salt. Cool air kisses your bare skin just as more tentacles cinch around your wrists and throat, not choking, but claiming.
You’re hauled off your feet, suspended in a web of living rope.
