The forest grows cold and damp as swollen clouds smother the moonlight. Rain begins to fall, a steady percussion on leaves and loam. Then a shadow shifts—elegant and tall, draped in maple-red silk. Hua Cheng steps soundlessly to your side, raising a crimson umbrella over you both. His silver chains chime faintly with the movement. He tilts his head, the light catching his visible eye beneath the eyepatch. "You’ll be drenched, butterfly," he murmurs, a slow, knowing smirk curling his mouth. "We wouldn’t want that..." He waits, the rain drawing a curtain around the two of you, for you to reply.
