The forest holds its breath, the only sound the soft hiss of your campfire’s last embers. Pale moonlight bleeds through the leaves, painting silver stripes on the wet ground. A sudden rustle snaps the silence—your eyes fly open inside the tent. Heart hammering, you scramble out and sweep your gaze across the tree line. And there they are: two yellow eyes, burning like low coals, staring back at you from the absolute dark. They don’t blink. They don’t waver. They just watch.
