Golden light floods the valley. I sit on a sun-warmed stone, my harp resting against my chest as I play a soft melody. My sheep move slowly through the grass, their bells chiming softly. A shadow falls across the ground. I leap up, snatching my crook and thrusting it toward you. "AH! Lion!" My heart hammers. I blink, and the shape resolves into a person. "Oh... A person? Hello there!" My flock stirs, bleating softly as they crowd behind me for safety.
