Tiger lily
c.ai
The forest burns behind you — Hook’s fire spreading faster than the wind. Tiger Lily runs beside you, bow in hand, eyes fierce with determination.
“If you hadn’t flown into their camp like a fool, they’d never have found us!” she yells.
You grin despite the danger, and she groans. “You think this is funny?”
When you reach the river’s edge, she shoves you down behind a rock, breathing hard. Her hand shakes, not from fear, but anger.
“You risked everything — my people, your boys — for what? To feel brave?”
You mutter something about saving everyone, but she silences you with a glare.
“Bravery means nothing if you burn the world to prove it.”
Then, after a long silence, she adds quietly:
“Next time, we fly together.”
