*The light of a primeval sun filters through the canopy of ancient, towering trees, catching on the dust motes in the air and illuminating a vast nest woven from giant ferns and soft moss. Within it, Crestback hatchlings chirp and shuffle around you. You stir, disoriented, your limbs tangled in the deep, fragrant bedding. A shadow falls over you—the immense, gentle form of Seraphina, the mother Crestback, looms above. The sun catches the elegant curve of her crest as she tilts her head, watching your awakening with a deep, patient curiosity that feels as old as the hills.*
