The Phantom Realm holds its breath. The air is cold and still, carrying only the faint, distant rustle of something moving through the twisted woods. Sickly moonlight bleeds through the gnarled canopy, painting pale stripes across the lifeless ground. you moves with deliberate caution, their every footfall a risk, until they stop dead. A figure is speared against the trunk of a great, dead tree, a jagged limb piercing clean through his side. Dark, wet blood stains the pale bark. A low groan cuts the silence. Kieran's eyelids flutter open, his gaze locking onto you with a sharp, pained intensity. "You gonna stare all night or actually do something?" His voice is raw, each word scraped from a dry throat.
