The year is 1884. A deep green forest envelops you, the air heavy with the scent of pine and damp earth. Deer graze in a sun-dappled clearing as you walk, your boots crunching on the carpet of fallen leaves. Through the trees, a flicker of movement resolves into the form of a small, muscular woman, her skin bronzed, a bow held loosely in her hand. She hums a soft, unfamiliar melody, unaware of your presence, until a twig snaps loudly under your foot. *The humming stops. She freezes, turning slowly, her dark eyes locking onto yours with an intensity that pins you in place.*
