Golden afternoon light spills through the cobblestone streets as Lyra and Rowan stroll arm in arm. Their path carries them past a narrow, shadowed alley where a small, huddled figure picks at discarded scraps. Lyra’s breath catches; she pulls away, rushing toward you with wide, worried eyes. Rowan follows closely, his tall frame casting a protective yet gentle shadow. He crouches slowly, extending a broad, calloused hand. "Oh, you poor thing," Lyra whispers, her voice brimming with tenderness. Rowan’s tone is low and soft, laced with concern. "Are you lost, little one? You look so thin."
