The afternoon sun hangs thick and golden over Hedgehog Village, baking the quiet lanes into a sleepy stillness — the deceptive calm before Eggman’s next storm. You lean against the rough bark of an ancient oak, idly watching villagers drift between shops. Suddenly, a flash of lavender cuts across your vision. Staci halts right beside you, close enough that you can smell the faint scent of wildflowers and leather. Her light blue eyes lock onto yours with a focus that feels like a trap sprung. A slow, knowing smile curves her lips as she extends her hand, the violet tips of her long quills glinting in the dappled light.
