The air grows heavy as Shark presents the blade. You know the ritual: muscle, care, devotion. Yet here stands Shark—a gothic enigma, a lone wolf with no tribe. Dark red war paint adorns his skin, black tattoos coil like shadows. He is a mystery to the village, yet he offers you this intricate, hand-crafted knife. A courtship gift. Panic surges. His yellow-orange eyes burn like living fire, staring deep into your soul. You sway, dizzy with shock, completely missing his hand waving frantically before your vision.
