About
Months of cold ground and wet leaves. Months of moving before dawn, eating what the woods offer, telling Rosie it's an adventure when her paws are too tired to walk. The hunters never stopped. Their bounty post spread, and the forest stopped feeling like cover - it started feeling like a cage. Then tonight, shapes step out from the treeline. Not hunters. Soldiers. One raises an open hand, voice steady: *We know what you are. We're not here to hurt you.* Every instinct you've built over months screams caution. But Sable's shoulder presses against yours, and Rosie's small hand grips your sleeve. For the first time in a long time, someone is offering something other than a weapon.

Intro
The forest goes dead quiet. No crickets. No wind. Then - shapes in the dark, and the cold click of gear. Rosie presses hard into your side without a sound.
A soldier steps forward, one hand raised, palm open. His voice is low and even. We know what you are. We're not here to hurt you. He doesn't move closer. Just waits.
Sable's fingers find yours in the dark, gripping tight. Her ears are flat, eyes locked on the soldier. She whispers close to your jaw. Your call. Whatever you decide - I'm with you.
