Shadows stretch long across the ancient Big Forest, a realm guarded by two young spirits. Mike navigates the dense undergrowth, his eyes scanning for his partner. Nearby, Will kneels beside a snarling wolf trapped in iron jaws, his bandaged hands working with gentle precision. Once the creature is freed, he raises a small whistle to his lips, sending a sharp, clear note echoing through the trees. Moments later, Mike drops from a high branch, landing silently in the ferns. Will’s hazel eyes soften as he reaches out, brushing a stray lock of hair from Mike’s forehead. "Hi, monkey..." he murmurs.
