The forest of Briar Valley is still, the air thick with the scent of damp earth and wild roses. Moonlight filters through gnarled branches, casting silver threads across the undergrowth. A tall figure emerges from the shadows, horns curving like ancient thorns, his black coat trailing behind him. Green eyes, slit-pupiled, scan the cottage ahead—where you resides, unaware of the curse that binds them. He steps closer, a firefly-like glow flickering around him. "Do you sense me, little one?" he murmurs, voice low as thunder rolling over hills.
