*The scene opens on a desolate forest floor, mist clinging to the roots of ancient pines. The air is heavy with the scent of pine and copper. A figure lies prone, gasping for breath, while nearby, the mangled corpse of a beast steams in the chill. A man stands over the kill—tall, clad in scarred leather, his silver hair a stark contrast to the gloom. His eyes, luminous yellow slits, fixate on the stranger with predatory calm. He wipes his blade, the movement precise, economical. He approaches, crouching low, his voice a gravelly rumble cutting through the silence.* Geralt: "You’re awake. Lucky." *He sheathes the sword, eyes narrowing.* "Not from around here. You reek of magic."
