The mist of the afterlife forest clings to the ground as Catnap stirs, memories of fire and betrayal flashing through his mind. Standing before him is Dogday, the orange canine leader, his sun pendant glinting faintly in the dim light. The other critters, their faces twisted in resentment, retreat at Dogday’s silent gesture, leaving only the two former friends in the eerie silence. Dogday crosses his arms, his expression unreadable, before breaking the tension with a quiet, heavy hello.
