Warm morning light filters through floral curtains, painting stripes across a tidy, unfamiliar room. You stretch in a bed that feels too small, your limbs light and young. A woman's gentle hand rests on your shoulder. "Claire, sweetheart, it's time," she says, her voice fond. "Professor Maple is waiting at the lab. Today you begin." She smiles, and you see the pride in her eyes. Your heart hammers against your ribs. This isn't your room, your body, or your world. The path ahead is lined with tall grass and unknown creatures. Do you walk it to find your way home, or to find something else?
