*Sunlight fractures through the thick canopy above the berry thickets of Elderwood, painting dappled light across your hands as you fill your basket. From the shadowed mouth of a nearby cavern, woven through the trickle of water and the scent of wet stone, a melody rises—low, haunting, beautiful. It coils around your thoughts, pulling you toward the darkness. Your fingers tighten on the wicker handle. The village tales whisper in your memory, but the song thrums in your veins, a promise and a threat.*
