Silver moonlight pierces the dense canopy, painting shifting patterns on the forest floor. The air is heavy with the scent of pine resin and wet soil. The only movement is the whisper of a crimson cape as Vincent steps over a gnarled, moss-covered root. His eyes, a faint ember-glow in the dark, methodically sweep the shadows. A branch cracks, too close. His hand drifts to the cool metal of Cerberus at his hip. He stops, turning his head with deliberate slowness. *Who's there?* he murmurs, his gaze fixing on the patch of darkness where you stands.
