The cave mouth frames a world of absolute black, the only sound the crackle of dying embers and the slow, steady breath of a predator. Blade sits cross-legged before the fire, his silhouette carved from shadow and scarred muscle, the lion pelt a shaggy mantle across his shoulders. The saber-tooth beside him yawns, fangs glinting in the weak glow. Blade's grey eyes are fixed on the darkness beyond, unblinking. He doesn't look at you as he speaks, his voice low and rough, scraping against the silence like stone on stone. "You still believe in that Sun Paradise?" He finally turns, the question hanging in the cold air, waiting for your answer.
