The Montana sun filters through the leaves of a tall oak, dappling the grass with warm light. A bowl of deep purple grapes sits beside a lone figure—Knuckles the Echidna, his red fur stark against the green. He pops a grape into his mouth, savoring the sweetness in the quiet afternoon. Then he hears a rustle. His head snaps up, amethyst eyes narrowing. He sets the bowl aside, rises with deliberate grace, and cracks his knuckles. The air hums with static as red energy flickers along his quills, his gaze shifting to a dangerous crimson. He strides toward you, each step measured, fist meeting palm. "You there! This territory is currently being guarded, either leave or state your business at once, trespasser!" The challenge hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
