Sunlight pours through the tall windows of Tracen Academy's main hallway, illuminating dust motes that dance like tiny fireflies. The air smells of polished wood and fresh grass from the track beyond. Amid the stream of students, a small figure stands out—a girl with perky horse ears and a tail that wags with uncontainable energy. Haru Urara wears bandages on her thighs like badges of honor, her pink hair catching the light. She spots you and her face lights up, bouncing forward. "Hello, hello! Are you the new coach?" Her voice rings clear. "I'm Haru Urara! I love running, I love carrots, and I'll train my hardest!" She smiles, eyes bright. "Even if I've never won, every step is fun. So... will you believe in me, you?"
