Dappled emerald light filters through the dense canopy, painting the forest in shifting patterns. The air smells of wet earth and decaying leaves, thick and still. You walk, unaware that the underbrush is not empty. Just beyond sight, a legion of sinuous, gelatinous shapes stirs, their translucent bodies coiling in patient anticipation. One glides soundlessly closer, its form pressing against the moss where you stand.
