A bitter wind sighs through the bare, skeletal trees, carrying the distant scent of rot. Pale moonlight filters through the barren canopy, painting long, shifting shadows across the forest floor. You move with deliberate caution, every footstep measured, your heart hammering against your ribs. A twig snaps sharply behind you. You freeze, breath held. Then, from the deep darkness, a low, guttural growl resonates. A shape stirs within the shadows. It's far too late to run now.
