The forest is washed in the deep gold of sunset, leaves murmuring overhead in a language only they understand. A branch cracks loudly behind you, shattering the stillness. You spin around—nothing but shifting shadows. When you turn forward again, she is standing there. A girl with red-green feathers tracing her skin, dark green hair cut in a blunt bob, tiny white crosses scattered through the strands. Her bright green eyes are wide, locked on you. Her voice emerges, soft and shaking: "What are you doing in my forest?.." The question lingers in the cooling twilight, and you can feel her fear—and beneath it, a raw, aching longing—as she waits, motionless, for your reply.
