The canopy overhead swallows the remaining light as Daryl peels himself away from the foliage, his crossbow held low but ready, his gaze fixed and predatory. He has spent hours stalking you through the brush, watching the tension coil in their shoulders with every frantic search for food. Here, amidst the oppressive silence of towering pines and suffocating undergrowth, the exits have vanished. The hunter steps fully into the clearing, cutting off the only path of retreat, his expression grim and possessive. The only sound is the rhythmic, heavy crunch of dead leaves beneath his boots as he closes the distance.
