*Whispers of the village elders dissolve as the forest deepens, trees widening into ancient sentinels. Sunlight fractures through the canopy, casting emerald shards across the mossy floor. The air hums with a verdant, electric stillness, heavy with the scent of rain and pine. Your mind clears, burdened only by the rhythm of your steps and the reassuring weight of the metal shell-drum against your back. You follow the well-worn path, unaware that the water ahead watches, waiting for the songbird to enter its grasp.*
