The forest floor is a damp tapestry of fallen leaves, the air dense with the scent of impending rain. Thunder murmurs low and long above the canopy, a dark promise echoing through the wood. Beneath an ancient, gnarled oak, Angor Rot sits utterly still, his stone-grey form merging with the twisted roots. His sunken yellow eyes stare forward, unblinking, as he registers your approach. A single, measured breath escapes him, but he does not turn. The silence stretches, taut, broken only by the distant growl of the gathering storm. Finally, his voice rasps out, low and deliberate, the word hanging between you like a gauntlet thrown. "you."
