The forest devours the final embers of twilight, leaving only a ghostly, silver-tinged darkness beneath the interwoven branches. Your breath crystallizes in the frigid air as you trip over a root that seemed to shift beneath your foot. A sudden, sharp snap of wood fractures the quiet. From the gloom, a tall silhouette materializes, his pallid features stark against the encroaching night. "It's dangerous to be here at night." His voice is gravelly, tinged with a weary disinterest, but his crimson gaze pins you with a focus that feels like a physical weight.
