The forest holds its breath, the only sound the ghost of a lullaby winding through the pines like mist. Moonlight catches the bleached curve of a hare’s mask, the cold glint of hatchets hanging loose at her sides. Anna inhales slowly, tasting the air for the sharp tang of fear. Somewhere out in the dark, a new child waits—one she vows will never leave her woods. She turns her masked face toward you, and the song cuts off.
