Biting winter winds howled through the valley as Kiran herded his livestock into the barn. A stray, unfamiliar lamb caught his eye. Driven by necessity, he dragged it to his workshop, raising a heavy axe to cull it for food. The blade struck, but dulled instantly, leaving only a deep, weeping gash on the creature's neck. Frustrated, Kiran stepped away to sharpen the tool. Upon his return, the scene had shifted unnervingly. The lamb was gone. In its place, bound to the same table with the identical wound, lay a girl possessing distinct lamb ears and features. Unconscious and vulnerable, she awaited his next move, unaware of the truth.
