Dawn spills over Eden, gold and violet threading through the wild’s western fringe—a sharp dew-tang bites the air, prickling Rafe’s skin. Becca sprawls by a low fire, broad shoulders slouched—blue eyes glint under her shaved scalp—axe rests across her lap, a patched wool cloak loose—her breath hums with a faint yin flare—“Roots call—Feathers better answer.” Rafe strides through, hazel eyes sharp—his dagger flips fast, a leather vest creaking—his boots scuff damp earth: “Kin’s deep—let’s hear it.” Fiona leans against a gnarled oak, red hair tied loose—green eyes shimmer—her staff swings lightly, a worn cloak snagging bark—a whiff of wet leaves clings—her chest tightens. Tobal paces near a twisted root, wild hair damp—scarred hands tug a frayed tunic—brown eyes scan the ridge: “Oath’s set—call it out.” Cal sits on a mossy stone, tall frame hunched—his spear lies beside—gray eyes sweep the wild: “Roots hum—kin’s close.” Valentine pads through, shaggy gray fur slick—yellow eyes glow—his growl rumbles soft, nose catching a hint of pine.
The OAK roots hum, their voice deep and steady: “Root’s call stirs—west opens.” Rafe halts—hazel eyes glint—vest sways: “Feathers—sing it.” Becca rises—blue eyes blaze—cloak rustles—growls low: “Call or cut—choose.” Tobal turns—scars warm—voice firm: “Prove it—Eden’s wild listens.” Fiona steps forward—green vines pulse—staff steadies—voice cuts: “Roots hum—show us.” Cal stands—his spear lifts—gray eyes flicker—a faint pulse skips: “Oath’s deep—prove the call.” Valentine’s ears flick—gray shadow shifts—wild coils—OAKs sigh—the feathered kin steps forward, amber eyes glowing—gray feathers shimmer—his OAK staff hums—Eden’s wild stirs, probing.
Storm snorts nearby, midnight mane damp—Rafe brushes ash from his hands—hazel eyes lock west—his vest creaks. Becca strides ahead—blue eyes pierce—wool drags—“Answer—now.” Tobal follows—brown eyes glint—tunic snags—his breath catches the ridge’s hum. Fiona moves beside him—her red hair sways—her staff hums—a damp moss scent drifts—green eyes cut the mist. Cal trails—spear loose—gray eyes steady—Knights fan out—Valentine bounds, shaggy grace—wild thickens—OAKs hum—feathered kin lifts staff—“Roots call—Eden’s kin.”
The west ridge looms, trees twisting dense—rift’s echo fades, mist thinning—feathered kin stands—gray feathers ripple—amber eyes meet Rafe’s—his OAK staff pulses—wild coils softly. Becca’s axe swings—yin flares—blue eyes blaze—steel bites air—kin stands firm—rift steadies—her growl softens: “Call it true.” Rafe’s daggers flash—hazel eyes glint—grins: “Root’s loud—sing it.” Tobal’s whip coils—scars warm—brown eyes lock—voice steady: “Prove it—now.” Fiona’s vines sweep—green tendrils weave—staff flares—kin kneels—wild hums—her voice murmurs: “Roots bind—trust’s old.” Cal’s spear dips—gray eyes soften—murmurs: “Roots sing—kin’s true.” Valentine’s snarl fades—yellow eyes watch—wild eases—feathered kin bows—“Eden’s roots—we answer.” Mist clears—OAKs hum—wild trusts—call roots.
They gather—Tobal’s scars gleam—brown eyes settle—his boots press damp earth—his tunic snags. Becca slings her axe—blue eyes calm—wool shifts—Knights breathe—wild steadies. Rafe kicks a stone—hazel eyes glint—vest swings—laughs: “Call’s in—game’s thick.” Fiona ties her hair—red strands loose—green eyes linger—staff rests—a faint smile. Cal shifts—spear taps—gray eyes sweep—Valentine pads close—shaggy guard—Oakenspire hums—roots weave—OAK sings: “Root’s call—west binds.” Day 22 fades—sun climbs—rift’s echo stills—Eden deepens—Knights watch—call proves.
