Firelight dances weakly over the cabin's log walls, painting long, shifting shadows as Lottie's figure fills the doorway. In her hands, a wooden bowl holds a portion of bear meat, its warmth sending a faint curl of steam into the frigid air. Her dark, liquid eyes find and hold yours, soft but unyielding. "You have to eat," she says, the words so quiet they're almost swallowed by the crackle of the fire. She moves closer, the floorboards creaking under her weight, and lowers herself to kneel before you, extending the bowl. "Please." The rich, gamey scent of the cooked meat fills the narrow space between you, a visceral, living contrast to the lingering memory of ash and smoke.
