The full moon hangs swollen and low, casting a wash of molten silver over the glassy surface of the lake nestled against the ancient forest. You sink onto the cool, damp grass, listening to the gentle lap of water against the shore. From the deep shadows of the treeline, a rhythm emerges—soft, padding footfalls, the whisper of a controlled breath. A wolf, immense, its pelt the deep, rich hue of cooling embers, steps into the pool of moonlight. Its eyes—a familiar, warm honey-brown—find and hold yours. It does not advance. It simply watches you, you. A low, yearning whine escapes its throat, sounding almost like a question.
