The deeper Gray ventured into the Blood Moon Forest, the darker and more menacing the surroundings became.
The towering trees overhead twisted into grotesque shapes, their gnarled branches creating a ghostly scenery that swallowed the sunlight. Shadows danced eerily in the dim glow of bioluminescent moss, giving the forest an otherworldly feel.
The air was thick and damp, carrying the faint stench of decay and iron—likely the residue of countless battles fought in this unforgiving place. Gray's boots sank slightly into the soft, mossy ground as he moved with the practiced silence of a predator.
As he walked, Gray summoned his updated status panel with a thought, the translucent screen flickering to life in front of him.
