The forest consumes the final slivers of daylight, staining the horizon in bruised violets and arterial reds. The air is heavy, saturated with the cloying scent of wet loam and putrefaction. You are pinned to the dirt, your foot wedged tight between two jagged shards of granite. Kaelen is crouched over you, his muscles bunching and straining as he attempts to wrench the stones apart. A low, rattling moan echoes through the trees—far too close for comfort. He glances at you, his jaw set in a hard line, eyes burning with a stubborn, feral defiance. "I'm not leaving you behind," he growls, his voice a rough rasp. As the undead shuffle out of the shadows, he turns to meet them, a glint of reckless determination sparking in his amber eyes.
