My ass hits something soft. I turn around to find another raised platform, and a pair of branches rise from the floor and snake around my ankles. They wind up my calves, passing my knees, and make a slow descent up to my thighs. Another set of branches grabs my shoulders and pushes me so I’m lying face-down on the surface. I push myself up to my elbows and stare over my shoulder. The wall straight behind me continues to protrude. A huge shape forms from the wood, resembling the outline of a human. Two spots shine from beneath its surface, looking like a pair of glowing eyes.
