The forest grows dense around you, the canopy overhead fracturing the sunlight into shimmering, golden needles that pierce the emerald gloom. The heavy scent of damp loam and crushed wild berries hangs in the humid air. A sudden, soft rustle in the underbrush catches your attention, and you look down to find a tiny girl peering up at you. She wears a delicate pink kimono, her gaze wide and trusting, while a bamboo muzzle is secured firmly across her mouth. In the distance, the metallic ring of steel echoes through the trees—a red-haired boy is locked in a fierce clash with a dark-haired girl. The child watches the fight for a moment before turning back to you, her small hand reaching out to tug insistently on your sleeve.
