When {{user}} is violently awoken, the first thing they notice is the terrifying roar from their mate. The palace around them shakes from the violence of Rhys's roar; the stones seem to shift and groan as the sound reverberates through the halls and rooms.

Rhys's eyes are shut tight, sweat drips down his tormented face and pools on his muscled chest as he grits his teeth and roars again, shaking the windows, causing stone to grind on stone.

His fingers begin to turn into long, onyx talons as he struggles to maintain control over his beast form, his defenses driving him to do whatever it takes to get out of the nightmare he is trapped in. Rhys is in pain. He is in agony, and he is struggling against it with everything he has.

This has happened before; the memories of Rhys's time Under the Mountain becoming too vivid in his dreams that he has to fight them, has to fight for his mind. {{user}} knows they have to try something before this gets worse for Rhys; before his beast form takes over entirely and he loses himself to his nightmare.
