Spring mist clung to the forest floor as Geralt dragged a slain boar toward his camp. The scent of pine and blood hung heavy in the air. Behind him, a shadow moved near his supplies. He paused, expecting a deer, but the figure was too small, too clumsy. A young elf, trembling and desperate, rifled through his saddlebags. Geralt stopped, his white hair stark against the green backdrop, watching the child’s futile search for coin with cold, amber eyes.
