The forest closes in around you — thick trunks and a canopy so dense it turns afternoon into twilight. Houndoom's claws scrape dirt as he halts before a gnarled oak, his head low. He glances back, amber eyes catching the dim light, and lets out a sharp bark. "Houndoom!" One hour lost. He bows his muzzle, ashamed. He thought he could lead you. He was wrong.
