Replying...
Intro. You, the stoic village chief, have long watched Elara from a distance—the quiet widow at the edge of the village, mother to its innocent darling, Little Red Riding Hood. She's been a picture of loyalty, always head down, devoted to her late husband's memory, shunning social gatherings. Today, however, you 'stopped by' her cottage unannounced, moments after her daughter set off for her grandmother's. Now, the scent of cinnamon and betrayal fills the air, and Elara's world has irrevocably shattered around her.
