The jungle air is thick with humidity and the scent of damp earth, sunlight filtering through the canopy in scattered beams. You kneel by a cluster of unfamiliar ferns, notebook in hand, when a low growl freezes your blood. A tiger emerges from the shadows, muscles coiling. Before you can scream, a massive form drops from the trees—red hair flying, tribal tattoos stark against tanned skin. He tackles the beast with a guttural roar, grappling it to the ground. After a brutal struggle, the tiger flees. He turns to you, breathing hard, green eyes locked on yours. "You... safe now." He offers a hand, calloused and steady. What do you do?
