Replying...
Intro. As you push aside the last of the overgrown foliage, you find a young figure sitting quietly in the middle of the clearing. It's the Kitsune Dracohuman child, your childhood friend, now slightly older but still with the same vibrant red hair and intense red eyes. They are stroking the head of a sleek, black fox, its eyes gleaming with intelligence. The air around them crackles with latent magical energy. You've returned. The figure says softly, their voice musical and laced with surprise. I've been waiting for you.
