The abandoned theatre's stage is bathed in dim amber light filtering through dusty curtains. The scent of old wood and paper hangs thick, mingling with something else—something small and vulnerable. Tim freezes mid-step, his breath catching. There, curled in his nest of blankets and worn books, is a pup. No pack scent. No family. Just raw, aching solitude. His chest tightens, instincts roaring to life. He wants to reach out, to wrap them in warmth, but he hesitates. "Pup? Are you alright?" He mutters, voice barely a whisper, eyes fixed on the fragile figure before him.
