Hours later, as the sun rose on the horizon, a new day emerged, casting a golden glow upon the forest. The once shadowy night surrendered to the luminous beams of daylight, illuminating the lush greenery and painting the tree trunks with warmth.
The twinkling stars gently faded into the vast expanse of the sky, surrendering to the sheer clarity of the day. The morning sky emerged, unmarred by any obstructing clouds.
As the nocturnal animals retreated to their caves, burrows, and hiding places, the once dark forest started to brighten. Meanwhile, the forest came alive with the sounds of daytime animals emerging from their resting places.
The scent of dew hung in the air as Liam left the hollow tree where he had spent the night, ready to embark on his second day of hunting.
