Deep within a remote and dense forest, a heavy silence was shattered by a thick stench of blood. Moonlight filtered through the dense canopy, casting mottled shadows across the darkness-shrouded earth. Several Death Eaters in black robes stood in a circle around the corpse of a massive Giant. The Giant lay lifelessly in the dirt, its gigantic body looking utterly powerless now, blood slowly seeping from its wounds to stain the surrounding earth.
The leading Death Eater had his black robes fluttering gently in the night wind, his Wand held high with its tip glowing with a eerie blue light. He swept his gaze across the surroundings, taking in Giants who looked either panicked or furious. Some of them gripped massive stone clubs, while others brandished sharp axes, their eyes revealing hostility and wariness toward the Death Eaters.
"The proposal we've offered," the Death Eater's voice echoed through the forest, carrying an unquestionable majesty, "does anyone else object?!" His tone was filled with provocation and menace, as if testing the Giants' bottom line.
