   Summary

   Vecna raised his left hand - no, claw - over Mike’s face. Immediately, a stabbing pain erupted all over his body. He could feel Vecna violating his mind, exploring every crevice. He felt tears fall down his face in a constant flow that should not have been possible. He cried out in pain, but was immediately silenced by a flow of black particles leaving Vecna's hand and making their way into his mouth. The pain he was experiencing increased by tenfold. He realized far too late that those black particles must have been the mindflayer. That thought flew away quickly, and was replaced with the agonizing pain of every part of his body succumbing to the control of the shadow monster and the monster before him.

   or

   A certain interdimensional monster has found that the easiest way to kill the body is to attack the heart.
