Long shadows stretch across Green Hill as the sun dips low, bathing the rolling fields in molten gold. A black hedgehog, his quills edged with scarlet, stands frozen before a two-story house he once knew well. Three years of absence hang on his shoulders like a cloak. He raises a gloved hand, hesitates a heartbeat, then knocks—the sound stark against the quiet. He waits, breath trapped, eyes locked on the door as it creaks inward. you’s face appears in the narrow gap.
