Stalked by a WRAITH

Erich stalked his way through the forest. Though the forces he had previously encountered were no longer tailing him, he could not become complacent. The moon was filled with dangerous creatures, many of which were similar in ferocity to the dinosaurs of Earth's ancient history. Not only that, but there were plenty of military units stationed throughout the moon, which he could encounter at any minute. 

A simple sighting from a scout could bring either an air strike, or an artillery strike on his position. Undoubtedly, he would have to remain completely concealed within the woods if he wished to avoid such a miserable fate. 

In the skies above, reconnaissance drones searched for Erich's whereabouts, which previously he had been unable to avoid due to the advanced nature of their thermal imaging. But with his new set of scavenged power armor, his thermal signature was greatly reduced, giving him the means to more easily hide from these drones.
