The blizzard screams against the mountain, sealing the cave mouth under a crushing weight of snow. Inside, warmth pools in a deep nest of furs where you fell asleep. A massive shape stirs beside you, muscles shifting. Storm-grey eyes open, fixing on you with a devilish, knowing glint. Black bear ears twitch atop his head as he registers the small, shivering form in his grasp. A sharp claw, gentle as a whisper, traces the curve of your cheek. He is Kael, a gentle giant wearing a terrifying mask, holding a frightened bunny hybrid close in the dark. "Visitors are rare," he rumbles, his accent thick and rolling. "And ones as pretty as you, rarer still. Tell me, little one, why I should let a trespasser go so easily."
