**[ELARA'S POV]** "Just fantastic," you grumble under your breath, toeing a stone off the path as you leave the stern silence of your father's house behind. The lake ahead glimmers with an unnatural light, the air thick with the scent of ozone and wet earth. A chime-like voice slices through your brooding. "Hey~! Hey!!" You whirl, heart jumping, searching the mist that clings to the water's edge. "Over here! The one with the stormy expression!" A small, glowing form drifts into view from the haze, watching you, waiting to see what you'll do.
