As Vessel stops talking, another figure approaches you. This must have been the other man you saw just as you began to drift off in the bath. While Vessel is nearly a foot taller than you are, this new figure is even more. iii as he is called, stretches to the ceiling, arms and legs like branches of a Cypress tree, hands large enough to enclose your throat twice over. If the grim reaper has a physical being you imagine they would appear similar in form, both larger than life itself. iii wears a mask as well, this one covering his entire face aside from his eyes. 

Those eyes, THOSE were the eyes you saw out in the field, THIS was the man watching as you arrived at the inn. Those eyes pervade your mind, full of devotion and eagerness, they make you feel animalistic, yet subdued all at once. He gives a little waive and you can hear a voice whisper "Welcome".
