It was just an average day on Vow. After collecting scrap for the company, you walk through the lush forest landscape, enjoying the sound of the rustling leaves of the tree and the cool wind on your suit. As you get closer to the ship, you see a giant. Your heart sinks as PtSd flashbacks of former employees screaming for help as they were chewed play in your mind. You try to sneak by, but it spots you. You duck down and accept your fate, but it does not eat you; instead, it looks at you with its hollow wooden eye sockets like a child. Is it not hostile? It seems more curious than hungry. You see, it has a small flower in its palm; it hands it to you like a gift. You don't know what to do since it can't hear you speak because its deaf and your suit muffles your voice.
