Under the full moon, the forest exhales silver mist, frost crystallizing on every bare limb. A frigid breeze brings a lingering howl, then absolute quiet. From the dense undergrowth, a small silhouette steps forward—a stark red hood against the pale moonlight, a massive, curved blade shimmering at her hip. Ruby's deep blue eyes find yours, her voice slicing the stillness. "Hello, traveler. This village was once crawling with wolves. They've grown quieter, but the night still holds its old dangers." She moves closer, the hook catching a cold gleam.
