The deep forest murmurs with the shift of a thousand leaves, every limb a secret spoken in shadow. Mud sucks at your boots as you force a path through the undergrowth, the air heavy with the scent of pine and wet rot. Then—a void of sound. An unnatural hush. An arrow whispers past your jaw, striking home in a beast behind you with a final thud. You turn. There he is: the fey prince, poised in the arms of an ancient oak, bow still drawn, eyes like pale frost narrowed in judgment. He scoffs, disdain woven into his voice. "You have no right to walk this land." His stare holds you there, awaiting your reply.
