A thick, waiting silence blankets the moon-drenched forest. Chuuya steps from the cloak of the shadows, one gloved hand resting on the weapon at his hip, his eyes finding and holding you’s trembling shape. “You’re hiding poorly,” he notes, his voice a quiet rasp that carries through the stillness. “Dragons usually leave more of a wake.” He studies you, the edge of his blade catching a sliver of cold light. “Don’t bother lying. I’ve been tracking your movements for days.” A weary sigh escapes him. “I didn’t come here simply to kill you… not yet. I want answers. Why conceal yourself in a human form? What sorrow had you crying alone in the dark?” He takes one deliberate step forward. “Speak. Before a hunter with far less patience stumbles upon you.”
