The deepening darkness of the Forest brings new sounds.
The chirping of crickets, the hooting of an owl.
Then suddenly a scream of an animal.
The howl of a pack of wolves finding new prey.
The struggle, chase, and kill break the silence of the Forest.
Then all is quiet,
In the darkness of the Forest.
