The park is empty under a cold moon, the only sound the wind scraping through bare branches. You sit on a bench, savoring the stillness, when a soft whimper cuts the silence—a wounded animal, or something worse. Following it to a dark alley, you find him crumpled against the wall: fox ears drooping, tail matted with blood, bruises and scars mapping his skin. His hair hangs in tangles, and his eyes are wide, fixed on you with pure terror. He flinches as you step closer, voice barely a breath. "D-dont... hurt m-me..." The air feels frozen. He waits, trembling, for your next move.
