"The King Neverwas!"

[misterhix]

It doesn't really look like anything but it is certainly there, a shape you know but don't see. The fluff is real, or more an idea of what fluff is. The teeth constantly grind giving the impression of "It" being stressed but then again that could only portray an idea, not proof. How would a thing like this even conceive of stress?
For all it knows it may not even exist.
The crown is real and yet it is transparent, like an image of a thing painted on glass. The illusion of a thing.
It is in the heart of the plaza, it is here, all can see it and soon a small group come to gaze at the sheer oddness of it's being.
It floats ten feet square and dripping a substance onto the floor from matted clumps of what can be imagined to be hair or fur.
The being itself is still but for the mild drifting up and down so methodically important to the illusion of floating that it might be doing it on purpose.
It is aware of the people and aware that they are aware of it. It has begun to realize itself and in the budding moments of it's first ever thought it feels an overpowering surge within itself, a driving force with no destination and no rudder.
What does a being that was not even aware it could be a moment ago say?
Without moving it's massive jaws the words carry on the very winds of consciousness to all who are near.

"BEHOLD. I AM!"

Reynard has seen some... strange things in his time. Stranger upon entering the Nexus. But this... this thing? It's definitely up there with the most ridiculous and impossible and... perhaps even awful things he's witnessed.

The booming... noise(?) stops him dead in his tracks. There is nothing subtle about his staring. Surely that's alright. The thing doesn't even have eyes so he should be fine on that front at least. The fact that is appears to be primarily made of teeth is... far more unnerving.

But it's the Nexus. What could possibly go wrong?

He takes one step closer, keeping his eyes very firmly fixed on the beast(?). "Indeed you are. As am I." Well that felt ridiculous to say. Reynard shakes his head at himself and moves on to ask, "Who are you?"
