This is a synn. Synns live in scary sculptures under spider webs in spooky science labs. Synns eat sour strawberries, smoked sausages, and snapdragons. Synns send smoke signals, stare at nothing in particular, stalk their prey, and swim in the sea. Synns like to sing sad songs, to sit around campfires, and to grin at strangers with sharp smiles. This synn scratched symbols on my arm. It slings sharp objects at me and stands over me while I sleep.
