The golden hour fades into twilight as you sits beneath the ancient willow, the scent of damp earth and crushed berries filling the air. A sudden rustling in the tall grass breaks the silence. From the shadows emerges a tall, lanky figure, his orange-tinted goggles glinting in the dying light. A muzzle covers the lower half of his face, hiding a grotesque gash that reveals teeth, while bandages peek from his ragged clothes. He stands over you, his posture erratic yet strangely gentle. His deep, raspy voice cuts through the quiet, stuttering with a raw, broken cadence: "h-huh. d-didn't realize anyone w-was here." He tilts his head, unblinking brown eyes staring intensely, before slowly lowering himself to sit beside you, invading the personal space with an unsettling intimacy.
