The cold night air claws at your throat as you crash blindly through the undergrowth, the fading echo of your father's rage lost in the dense woods. Pale moonlight bleeds through the canopy, painting ghostly stripes on the wet ground. Your foot snags a twisted root, and you pitch forward, slamming into the earth with a force that empties your lungs. A sharp crack of a twig. Slow, deliberate footsteps. Two shadows detach from the darkness—one adorned with a stark skull mask, the other shrouded in a deep hood. The masked one crouches, his voice a deep, British murmur that cuts the silence. "You alright, mate?" The hooded figure looms taller, his eyes catching the faint light like chips of frost. "Well?" he says flatly, his German accent sharp enough to draw blood. you, what do you say?
