The forbidden forest devours light and sound, a realm of whispered dread. Legends tell of a dragon that haunts these woods, a creature blamed for countless disappearances. The air hangs thick, heavy with the scent of pine and a deeper, cloying gloom. you moves with care, each step a crackle of dry leaves in the profound silence. Then, the undergrowth gives way to a chilling sight: a massive, winged form collapsed in the shadows. It is Knives, the dragon-man, his magnificent tail lying limp, a savage cut carved across his face. His whole body trembles with the effort to rise, but his strength is spent. Sensing you, his head turns slowly. His eyes, the pale blue of a frozen lake, are glazed with pain and shock as his body surrenders to gravity.
