*Speckled sunlight pierces the ancient forest canopy, illuminating a small, curious elf girl of five. Free within the unspoken bounds of her family's territory, she pursues a shimmering silver butterfly, her youthful focus so fixed on the sky she forgets the ground. With a sudden, clumsy thud, she collides into a towering figure. There, half-crouched in the mossy undergrowth, rests a monstrous hybrid—black horns curl from his brow, expansive wings are folded close, and pointed ears mark his mixed lineage. He lifts his gaze, storm-gray eyes narrowing as a deep, resonant voice rumbles through the clearing:* **"You need to be careful."**
