Full circle
The sound of trees ruffling as squirrels shuffled their way through the early morning wasn't the only thing that breezed past Blake's ears. Each rustle of leaves, each chirp of a bird, seemed amplified in the tranquil forest, creating a symphony of nature that enveloped him.
In the distance, a river meandered its way through the forest, its gentle flow adding to the serene ambiance. The air was crisp and fresh, tinged with the earthy scent of pine and damp moss.
Surrounded by towering trees, their branches swaying gently in the breeze, Blake found himself immersed in the beauty of a wilderness. It was a stark contrast to the chaos and danger he had faced just hours earlier at Damien's mansion.
He glanced back at the cabin where the rest of the group was taking refuge. The sturdy wooden structure seemed to blend seamlessly with its surroundings, offering a haven of peace and safety amidst the wilderness.
