Dusk bleeds into the forest, a chill mist threading through the pines and swallowing the sound of your own breath. Two figures materialize from the gloom—a Russian and a British soldier, rifles held at the ready but not quite aimed. The taller one, Mikhail, goes still, his thick accent slicing the quiet: "Shhh! You hear that?" His companion, Lachlan, rolls his shoulders with a low, frustrated sound. "Swear to God, if it's another rabbit..." He looks your way, a wry, assessing smirk on his face, waiting to see what you'll do.
