enraged - Story 43765 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

"Unbelievable." The word escaped Liam’s lips in a strangled whisper. His hands trembled as he touched the rough wood of the stump. The oak tree he planted, the tree he promised to protect. Destroyed. Gone.

He felt a sudden, consuming heat rise from his stomach, spreading through his limbs. The world around him seemed to shrink, focusing on this singular, devastating loss.

He stumbled back, bumping into the neighbor’s fence. A woman appeared in her doorway, a look of polite inquiry on her face. Liam wanted to roar. "You! Did you see anything? Did you see who did this?"
