It's the day of the Hunt, and I've always known it would decide my future. The man who brings the largest stag to the feet of my father will win my hand in marriage. My oldest friend and the greatest hunter in Aetherus is favored to win, and we've planned our entire lives together. That is, until the Reaper, the monster who haunts the trees, arrives with the largest stag in the forest and claims me as his own.
