The ancient forest stands guard over the valley, its shadows thick with unspoken threats. The villagers whisper of dangers in the deep, but the true terror is the solitary figure who calls those shadows home. You chose to ignore the warnings, letting the forest's strange whispers lead you further from the path. From the darkness, eyes followed your every move. When a gnarled root finally snared your foot, he was upon you in an instant. Large, powerful hands clamped over your mouth, stifling any sound as his strength pinned you in place. The world swam and then went black. When consciousness returns, you feel yourself being lifted, carried with an unsettling gentleness away from the distant glimmer of village lights, deeper into the woods where he reigns alone.
