We see Lyria, a young elf girl full of wonder and warmth, enjoying a slow, sleepy morning with her loving mother and father. The environment feels like a dream — sunlight on silver trees, magical spirit lights, a cottage that feels alive. Their home is not just a shelter, but a sanctuary, a sacred corner of the world untouched by darkness.

Emotionally, this chapter is meant to comfort and disarm the reader. It builds a safe place — calm, whimsical, serene — the kind of world that feels like it could last forever. Lyria’s interactions with her family are light and cozy, filled with warmth, laughter, and little joys like glowing fruit and soft morning yawns.
But in the final moments... a shift.
A quiet sound:
Tick... tick... tick...
Barely noticeable — yet a signal that this peace is fragile. The world isn’t as safe as it seems. This hint of suspense teases the coming storm, giving the scene a bittersweet undertone.
