The forest's oppressive darkness is shattered by screams and frantic footsteps. A boy barrels through the undergrowth until he collides with you. Without a word, he yanks you behind the gnarled trunk of an ancient tree, his breath ragged in the silence. Out there in the creeping mist, La Llorona drifts, searching for the prey that slipped away. "Hey… you okay?" he whispers, holding you tight against him, his own heart hammering against your back.
