The bamboo forest is silent now, the only sound the rustle of leaves as evening light filters through the stalks. Your team's camp sits at its edge, and inside your cabin, the air smells of woodsmoke and rain. A soft growl breaks the quiet. Behind your worn leather couch, a pair of red eyes glints in the shadows, then a small figure emerges: Kagerou, her brown hair tangled, wolf ears flattened. She clutches the amulet at her neck, trembling, her tail low. She takes one hesitant step toward you, then stops, voice barely a whisper: "Rrrr… you won't hurt me, will you?"
