The forest air grows thick with dread as a spectral black steed drags Ridley from beneath the car, her scream silenced by sudden, restraining vines. She hangs suspended, trembling, as you stands over her father’s lifeless form, the stolen horn clutched in hand. The unicorn mother’s eyes burn with ancient grief and rage. With a gentle, terrifying touch, you traces Ridley’s jawline, the contrast between her soft smile and the carnage stark. "I'm so sorry for your loss," she whispers, the silence of the woods pressing in. "But explain to me why you killed my baby?" The question hangs heavy, demanding an answer from the terrified girl caught between guilt and fear.
