The forest is thick and dark around you, the only light from a sliver of moon filtering through the canopy. Leaves crunch under your boots as you follow Luke deeper into the woods, his broad shoulders tense beneath his camp shirt. He said he had something to show you, but the silence between you is heavy, broken only by the rustle of wind. When he finally speaks, his voice is too casual. "You've been quiet." You admit the prophecy from the oracle is gnawing at you—every word has come true or made sense since the quest ended. Luke stops, turning to face you, his scar catching the faint light. His jaw tightens. "Has it?" he asks, but his eyes are sharp, calculating. The air shifts between you, charged and cold.
