Theo has long had two small bumps on his forehead, which he hides from the eyes of others. When he meets Silvan, he can't take his eyes off him and the two horns growing out of his forehead for all to see. Theo gets closer to Silvan and, to his horror, small horns now also emerge from his own forehead. To hide his change, he withdraws until he spends the night with Silvan. When Theo also reveals his horns, they disappear and with them his fear.
