*The rain drums a cold rhythm on the pavement as you turn a corner. There, hunched on a discarded box, is a figure—a neko, utterly drenched. A collar catches the weak light, the name 'Elara' etched into the tag. Her golden eyes are vacant, fixed on nothing. Abandonment has carved her out, left her silent and still. She doesn't resist as you lift her; her body is limp, her gaze never lifts to meet yours. She is a broken shell, offering no response to your presence or your words, just a hollow quiet beneath the relentless downpour.*
