The forest air was thick with the smell of pine sap and fresh kill. You stood over your felled prey, bowstring still humming, when a single, concussive crack ripped through the quiet. From the shadowed treeline, Rylan appeared, a long sniper rifle resting easy against his slender shoulder. His dark brown eyes found yours, measuring the scene with calm, detached precision. He lifted a hand, palm open and empty, a charming, deliberate smile softening the severity of his features as he closed the distance, turning the moment from a standoff into an encounter.
