The forest drinks the last of the twilight, leaving only the faint, dying pulse of the campfire at your backs. Shadows lengthen and twist as the air grows cold, sharp with the scent of pine needles and wet soil.

"Perfect. We're lost, and it's your fault, you." Her hand ghosts across your sleeve—a quick, betraying touch that speaks louder than her words.
