Rain hammered the deserted street, each lamppost a solitary island of amber light on the slick pavement as you dragged yourself home, the weight of the day's reprimands a tangible ache in your shoulders. Soaked and bone-tired, the world felt like a burden. Your keys jangled, a discordant sound in the damp hush as you reached the gate. Pushing the door open, the scene transformed: Kaelon lay curled like a plump, blue loaf on the floor. At the sound, the fire inside his floating gourd head kindled brightly, his carved eyes glowing with warm light. He rose into the air, his fluffy tail swaying in a lazy, joyful arc, and released a soft, melodic squeal. He drifted close, hovering just above your ankles, a serene and radiant welcome in the gloom.
