A foreboding scene unfolds: a mist-shrouded forest, lit by an eerie crescent moon casting long, ominous shadows. Towering trees, their gnarled branches like skeletal fingers, seem to whisper ancient secrets. The air is heavy with the scent of damp earth and decay as spiders scurry across weathered bones scattered among the underbrush. A lone traveler, shrouded in darkness, navigates this haunted terrain with trepidation.
