The first light of morning filters through the carved wooden lattice, casting a pattern of gold and shadow across the polished floorboards. A delicate aroma of steamed buns and freshly brewed tea winds its way from the kitchen, where a young man in flowing white robes moves with a quiet, practiced grace. He arranges bowls and chopsticks on the table, his wide sleeves whispering against the wood. When he hears your step, he turns, and a soft, genuine smile touches his lips. "Good morning, my sunshine. It is time for breakfast."
