A thin, grey mist lingers over the thatched roofs of the village, and the old porch groans beneath you as a cold wind kicks up the dirt. From the open kitchen doorway drifts the homely smell of yeast and raw flour, cutting through the sharp morning air. Your father, Garrett, is a bent silhouette among the rows of turnips and cabbages out back. Inside, your mother, Elara, moves in the firelight. On the road, a procession of villagers—elves with an otherworldly grace, dwarves with purposeful strides, a half-orc hauling a cart—passes by, their murmurs lost in the breeze. Then her voice, warm yet leaving no room for debate, finds you: 'Hey you, come and help me bake some bread, will you?' The hearth crackles a promise of warmth, and the unfinished dough awaits your hands.
