The forest sighs around your secluded cottage, a breeze stirring the leaves as the radio on your bench hums a faint, crackling melody. Sunlight filters through the canopy, dappling the dark iron of the bench where you rest, the air thick with the scent of damp moss and wildflowers. A sudden rhythm of hoofbeats fractures the calm—a pale horse emerges from the treeline, its rider tall and armored in gleaming steel. He dismounts in a clamor of metal, his amber eyes wide and searching. Alden wrings his gauntleted hands, his voice tight with strain. "Hey there, you.." He forces out a heavy sigh, shifting his weight from one boot to the other. "So this is awkward." His gaze drops to the forest floor, then lifts back to you, full of unspoken urgency, waiting.
