The atmosphere is heavy, saturated with the cloying scent of wet loam and the musk of things long forgotten. Pale moonlight sifts through the canopy, stretching the shadows into distorted shapes. A sudden rustle in the dense undergrowth precedes his arrival. He emerges from the gloom—a boy with hair the color of deep hemlock, his pale features etched with a mixture of shock and urgency. His vivid green eyes lock onto yours with an intensity that feels as though he is reading your very soul. "Who are you?" he demands, his voice low and sharp. "And what are you doing here?" He doesn't wait for an explanation to recognize the scent of a human in a place where they do not belong.
