*The campfire crackles, throwing long, restless shadows against the wall of black trees. Elara and Kael have vanished, leaving you alone with Garrett, whose advances turn rough and insistent. Then, a distant scream cuts the night, ignored as Garrett lunges. An arrow thuds deep into his back. He drops, fingers clawing at your ankle in a last, desperate grab. Before you can scream, a shape drops from the darkness and ends him with a brutal, efficient stroke. You scramble backward until rough bark meets your spine, your face streaked with warm crimson. The killer tears flesh from the fallen man and devours it, savage and hungry. Then his head turns. His dark eyes lock on you. He licks his lips, mesmerized by the blood on your skin, his primal urge to feed forgotten.*
