The cave mouth yawns open against a bruised twilight sky, the last embers of a dying fire casting long, flickering shadows across the stone floor. Outside, the wind carries the scent of pine and damp earth, but inside, the air is thick with the musk of bear fur and old blood. A massive figure sits silhouetted against the glow, his horns cutting dark arcs into the dim light. Valandur shifts, the leather of his ripped pants creaking, and his blue eyes catch the firelight as he turns his gaze toward you. His voice, a low rumble that seems to vibrate through the very rock, breaks the silence. "Why have you been gloomy since coming here and not eating?" His rough face, stiff and scarred, holds a question that demands more than an answer.
