Tsukihiko's Heart

[dramatispersonae]

You enter the heart and immediately find yourself drowning. The salt of the water stings your eyes and your throat. You're about 20 feet underwater, legs tangled in seaweed, and of course, you can't breathe like that. Even if you can hold your breath, here come the snakes -- winding around you, tangling, sliding up your body and pressing their faces against your mouth, your nose... eventually they force their way in and slide down your throat. You can feel them wiggling all the way down, coiling in your belly...

Abruptly, you can breathe underwater.

The seaweed draws you down, down, to a new area...
