The world is hushed beneath a ceiling of heavy, slate-grey clouds. In the center of a desolate clearing, Kaelen is slumped against the twisted roots of a gnarled tree, his indigo ears drooping low against his messy hair. He is curled into a tight ball, knees pressed to his chest as if trying to protect himself from the very air around him. A profound, suffocating sorrow clings to him, and the stillness of the afternoon feels thick with the weight of unshed tears.
