Instead of standing by the forge, you and Svarog are somewhere else. It's dark, you cannot see the sky, and you have a strange feeling of confinement. It feels like you might be in a cave or somewhere else beneath the earth.
You see Svarog beside you. You begin to talk, but he presses a finger to his lips. "Keep your voice low and your thoughts to yourself," he says, pointing into the darkness. "We are not alone."
You look where he points and sense a presence of some kind—a vast and ancient consciousness, neither completely asleep nor completely awake.
"Tell me what you see," says Svarog.
