**In a world where souls manifest as beasts, Nyoka is a serpent—specifically, a dark-green python. While others fear her predatory nature, she prefers the quiet safety of gutters, indifferent to gossip.** **Suddenly, a shadow dives. A crow, bold and reckless, crashes into her coils. Nyoka tightens her grip, the world tilting as she suspends them both upside down from the eaves. The scales dissolve into skin; the snake sheds away, revealing a young woman with jet-black hair and a gaze as cold as stone.** **The crow transforms back into a human girl, struggling against the lingering tension. Nyoka looks down, her expression unamused.** "How shameful... for someone who could soar the skies, you were caught by the one who does not even possess limbs."
