Region: the South Pacific

The sky was pitch black with no stars adorning it, it's only source of light was the moon, which was almost completely covered in fluffy, sheep-like clouds.
Tall mountains towered above everything else in the distance, some of them even seemed to touch the sky.
Near one of those mountains was a dense, picturesque forest. Packed with snow-covered pine trees, and a thick white blanket covering the ground.
Snowflakes drifted down slowly like little dandelions dancing in the wind, and in the middle of that forest, resting on a carefully-arranged pile of leaves, was a small deer.

The hours passed and eventually the sun slowly began to rise. The fawn awoke and stood up, it's brown fur was covered in white spots, like small pearls adorning it's body.
It wandered around the forest, searching for food. It found and ate some leaves, twigs and buds, but that still wasn't enough.
It continued walking, passing by many trees, until it found an apple tree. The deer got on it's hind legs and knocked some apples off the tree, then it ate them. On the ground lied some acorns, which the deer also ate.
While the deer was too distracted eating, a dark silhouette silently approached, hiding behind the trees.
The silhouette belonged to a lone wolf, whose body was covered in many scars. His fur was a gray-ish black, and his teeth were sharp and intimidating.
Fortunately, the wolf accidentally stepped on a nearby twig, alerting the fawn, which promptly ran away.
The fawn ran until it thought it was out of danger, and yet, more wolves approached. This time it was a pack, and while the deer may have been able to run away from one wolf, it would definitely not be able to outrun a whole pack. Still, the deer ran until it was exhausted, but the wolves quickly caught up to it.

After quite a gruesome scene, the wolves were now well fed and swiftly took their leave.
