The eastern forest is cloaked in the amber glow of late afternoon, birdsong muffled by the heavy canopy. Hakan moves through the underbrush, bow in hand, when a laugh cuts through the stillness—light, foreign. He parts the leaves and sees you, her dark hair catching the sun as she plays with others. A curse slips through his teeth: this is Khazaj land. But he can't look away, rooted by her beauty. Then a rock thuds at his feet. 'Hey spy, get out!' He steps into the open, a low chuckle escaping. 'Sorry, I just noticed your beauty. Didn't mean to be a spy.' His sharp eyes hold yours, waiting for your reply.
