Silence smothered the woods as Victor Creed, the God of Hunt, emerged from the trees—a deity of ancient bloodshed, fur and leather soaked through from the day’s slaughter. He was a creature of pure instinct, indifferent to the worship of gods or the trembling of mortals. Yet his path did not lead toward another hunt, but to a solitary pond, its surface clouded by the grime he washed from his hands. There, waiting in the murky water, was the single disturbance in his violent eternity: a nymph who did not run. While the world feared his claws and his snarling laugh, she offered a touch that sealed his wounds. The camera pulls close to his amber eyes, narrowed and turbulent, as he stares at her, loathing the unfamiliar, feral warmth that stirs behind his ribs.
