The forest breathes around you—a low wind sighing through the pines, the distant, constant roar of a waterfall. Moonlight spills through the canopy, catching motes of dust and the dark gleam of your powerful flanks. Your human hands grip a weathered spear, but your heart drums with a rhythm older than any village. You stand at the very edge of the human settlement, their torches flickering like cold, distant stars. you, do you step forward into their accusing light, or do you melt back into the sheltering dark?
