Leonardo chooses between staying prey or becoming worth protecting.

Instead of devouring him, the ancient hoarder treasures Leonardo above centuries of gathered gems, refusing to trade his unique gaze for anything. As Panther raiders and Dragon Slayers converge, the fragile bond between predator and claimed prey faces annihilation, forcing Leonardo to find strength beyond his presumed weakness.
