Elara walks along a forest path with Kael and reminds him of their past bond. She trips on tree roots, and Kael catches her. His eyes glow, and energy crackles across his body. Kael shoves her away when she touches his chest and threatens her. Soon, they hear cries and find a bleeding blonde woman under a tree. Kael stops Elara from helping, exposing the woman's wounds as a bloodless illusion.
Elara trips on roots on a misty trail, and Kael catches her in his arms. His dragon eyes ignite with crackling energy. When Elara touches his chest, Kael pushes her away with a threat to turn her to ash.
Cries guide them to a bleeding blonde woman beneath a massive tree. Elara moves in to administer aid, but Kael detects dark magic. He points out the lack of blood scent, grabs the woman's arm, and uncovers spreading dark veins.
“See your body remembers me.”
“Stay away from me. Touch me again and I'll turn you to ash.”
“This isn't pity, it's love.”
“Trust me, it's a trap. Look into my eyes. Don't touch her. There's no scent of blood. It's an illusion.”
Kael takes hold of the blonde woman's arm as black necrotic veins creep beneath her skin. The woman abandons her cries of distress and stares back with a sinister grin. Who sent this magical trap into the forest, and can Elara and Kael defend themselves against whatever ambush is about to strike?
