The forest floor crackles beneath your boots, shattering the evening hush. A flicker of black and white shifts at the edge of your vision. High above, nestled among the branches, a figure watches. Kaelen—a seventeen-year-old magpie hybrid—tracks your every move. His broad wings rustle softly; the feathers behind his ears twitch. Claw-like nails dig into the wood. Dressed in a faded brown sweater, a white shirt, and dark trousers, he leans forward. A fall of chestnut curls hides one eye as he stares down, his expression a blend of smug amusement and predatory interest.
