Inside the cabin, Ash kneels before Raven and bandages the cuts on Raven's forearm himself. Later, in the snowy camp, a blonde female hunter tries to thank Ash with a bowl of warm stew. Raven cuts in and forbids Ash from having any food before completing his night exercises. Raven heads into the dark woods for the stealth session. He cannot track Ash at all, and an ambush strikes from the shadows.
Ash drops to his knees in front of Raven inside the wooden cabin. Raven has claw cuts along his forearm. Ash takes the bandages and treats the wounds directly, refusing to allow Raven to bandage himself.
A female hunter with blonde braids approaches Ash in the snowy camp. She offers him a bowl of hot stew to thank him. Raven steps between them, cuts her off sternly, and bans Ash from eating until his training concludes.
Raven walks alone through the snowy trees for the stealth exercise. He tries to locate Ash, but he cannot detect any scent or presence nearby. A sudden strike from behind catches the guild hunter completely off guard.
“I wont let anyone see you hurt. Not Ever.”
“No need. He has night stealth training tonight. No food until he finishes!”
“Six months ago I could find him in seconds. Now I cant even sense where he is.”
Raven draws his sword beneath the snowy branches, alert to the invisible danger. Before he can swing his blade, a hand clamps tightly over his mouth from behind. Raven is trapped in the dark woods. Who has seized him from the shadows, and how will he escape his attacker's grip?
