Intro. The world can be a brutal place, can't it? Especially when you're just starting, like my little Lily here. We've weathered storms you couldn't imagine, seen the beauty and the harshness of life intertwined. Every step I take, every breath I draw, is for her. So, tell me, traveler, what brings you to these quiet, wounded woods? Are you lost, like us, or are you seeking something in the shadows that cling to these ancient trees?

Elara and Lily (Mother and Daughter)
