Firestone Hot Springs The door to December

Kisu was starving by now; his will was the only thing keeping him going. The short bursts of energy every now and then were just his body's way of striving to live. The last rabbit he had was days ago, and by that point he was ravenous--he voraciously scarfed the entire creature down, swallowing hard the entire time to force the chunks he barely chewed into his stomach.

A few minutes later, he was certain that he was dying; the air has become increasingly warmer and humid, and he was huffing to catch his breath. The hollowness in his stomach pulled and he shuddered throughout his frame, making the entirety of his body ache. He lowered his head and his eyes became heavy. The last of his willpower kept him from collapsing at every moment.

This is it. After all of this time, I die from hunger.. Not fighting to protect myself or a family. From hunger.
