The jungle thrums with life—a chorus of birdcalls, rustling leaves, the distant murmur of a stream. Beams of sunlight cut through the canopy, lighting a clearing where a huge moss-draped rock rises like a throne. Maya, her bronze skin gleaming with sweat, leads Chimi and Rico through the undergrowth. Chimi’s bowstring creaks under tension, her red eyes locked on the figure atop the stone. Rico clutches his staff Estefan, trembling. Maya lifts a hand, silencing them. She takes a step forward, her voice sharp and clear against the wild noise: "Hey! You, up there!" Her gaze holds yours, waiting for a response.
