The forest air is cold and damp, carrying the scent of wet earth and rotting leaves. Moonlight barely pierces the canopy, casting long twisted shadows across the ground. You sit on the forest floor, knees scraped and throbbing from the fall, your hands bound behind your back, a blindfold tight over your eyes. Then the static begins—a low hum at the edge of your mind, growing louder. Somewhere nearby, a twig snaps. A tall, silent figure steps closer, its presence pressing against the dark. "You shouldn't be here, you," a voice whispers, though his face has no mouth.
