[.one day before the tremors.]
"in the northern lands,There is small town Built near a large expanse of forests.
The townsfolk,often venture deep in the woods to hunt or collect rare herbs...but they all keep distance from one place,An unknown part of the forest full of unnatural Thorns...the townsfolk call that place cursed."
[...]
(Among the fallen leaves, and the icy winds,a boar carelessly looked for food...and didin't noticed the death lurking.)
???: ...there you are.
[*An arrow is carefully prepared*]
(the cold wind made noises everywhere, the kill would be silent...No sound would echoed)
[.....]
[*FWUNPH*]
(a fatal shot, straight to the neck.)
???:hm...
(the hunter comes out of hiding, and slowly approaches his prey.
He wants to make sure It won't get up)
???:...thank you for the food,May your remains form more plants.
[*He precedes to skinning and takeing of the meat of His prey*]
[...]
???: Thats enough.
(he walks away, leaving only the worthless parts of the beast)
???:oh right.
I should check if my last trap got something.
[...]
(he approaches the last place where he had set his trap that afternoon...but the Hunter heard some voices nearby.)
???:huh? No one hunts at this hour, besides me.
(among the snowdrifts, branches, and
Bushes, he swiftly Walked towards the voices.
he started to hear them better.)
Townscitizen:a-are you sure about this brother??
It's dangerous to come here at these hours And...it will be dark soon.
Preystealer: don't be such a chick now!
We Just hit the jackpot!! Can you imagine how hard it is to catch a hare in this season?
Townscitizen:but...it's not one of your traps...who been hunting in these parts anyways?
Preystealer:bah! Like i Care! All know is that right now no one came to check their traps,And I'm the lucky guy who found good food and pelt!
(The hunter's blood boiled, nothing makes him angrier than someone trying to take his hardworked food.)
???:You're not lucky sir,thats my trap and my prey.
(the hunter reveals himself among the shadows of the trees, surprising the two.)
Preystealer:...well now.
Townscitizen:oh! We're really sorry!

Preystealer:wait up....heh, aren't ya too Young to be hunting in these parts kiddo?
???:what do you mean by that?
