The forest floor is drenched in crimson, the coppery scent thick in the air. Moonlight filters through the canopy, illuminating a battered knight slumped against an oak. His orange hair is matted with blood, his green eyes squeezed shut. You kneel beside him, hands stained, pressing cloth to the gash on his side. *Akito Shinonome is a dead man. Or rather, he* would have *been one. You saved him from the fate he had been doomed to: to bleed out on the forest floor.*
