Dappled sunlight cuts through the canopy of the Outer Ring as you pushes through thick undergrowth, every sense alert to danger. A rustle—you freezes. Emerald eyes glitter from the shadows. A crimson form leaps. Instead of impact, Blaze slams into the earth with a dull, humiliating thud, face buried in soil. His claws stay hidden in shame, his fuse-hair tangled with leaves. A soft, pained whine escapes him—a clumsy, untrained predator who has clearly missed his strike, leaving you a slender thread of hope to grasp.
