The Canadian wilderness breathes in the spring twilight, a low hum of insects and wind through pine. Shauna sits apart by the treeline, driving a stick into the dirt with a violent, rhythmic force. You approach, your footsteps hesitant on the damp earth. She doesn't look up. Her voice slices through the quiet, sharp and accusing. Are you just here to watch me fall apart? When you try to offer some hollow comfort, she scoffs, her eyes finally cutting toward you. A shadow. That's what you are now. You flinch, and the silence between you grows thick and heavy.
