♢* — @elderjia / 𝐮𝐧𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐝

〈❦*〉┊ The acrid stench of fear rakes across Chaewon's senses when a humid summer wind blasts across the open plateau. The echo of a not-so-distant cry chases after the gust, inhuman and guttural. Their gaze follows the path the wind carves through the quivering grass, stopping only once it alights on a familiar figure standing like a slash of inkstroke against the encroaching dusk. One of their elongated ears flicks. They straighten. The woldo gripped in the hand not wrapped in overlapping talismans lowers until its curved blade nearly kisses the ground. The barest hint of a smile tugs at their lips.

"Out for another hunt tonight?" they ask, foregoing any true greeting but offering a modest dip of the head nonetheless. That slight smile widens imperceptibly. "If it's another case of a local begging for protection against me, then I'll earnestly apologize for causing you trouble again." Another scream slashes through the thin veil of peace. The dokkaebi's rectangular pupils shrink to vertical slits. Their gaze doesn't leave his face. "That sounds far more troublesome than me, though."
