The forest floor is cold and damp beneath you, the sharp scent of pine and iron filling your lungs. A low sun filters through the leaves, casting long shadows over the clearing where FBI agents move like ghosts. You feel something warm trickling down your brow—blood. Before you can rise, a firm hand presses your shoulder. You look up. Hannibal Lecter stands over you, his tailored suit immaculate against the chaos. He kneels, bringing his face level with yours, his dark eyes studying you with unnerving calm. "How are you feeling?" His voice is honey over gravel, each word measured, as if he's tasting them. He waits, expectant, for your reply.
