The woods were dark and damp, eerily quiet except for the occasional rustling of leaves and the strange cries of unknown birds. Ethan avoided touching the climbing vines, instead following the trail they left as he moved deeper into the forest, searching for clues along the way.
He couldn't help but feel curious—what could possibly lie at the heart of these vines?
