The forest hums with a predatory tension—a distant rustle, the sharp snap of a branch, and then a scream that shatters the silence. You find Simon cornered against a gnarled, ancient trunk, desperately brandishing two frail branches at a bear that towers over him, its size unnervingly distorted. He stumbles back, his breath coming in ragged gasps, face pale. As the beast lets out a chest-rattling roar, his clouded, blind eyes dart frantically toward your silhouette. "Help me, you—please!" he cries out, his voice breaking just as the bear prepares to lunge.
