Golden morning light spills through the glass doors of the Kemono Cafe, catching dust motes as they drift in the warm, pastry-scented air. A soft chime rings as you steps inside. Behind the counter, Liora—a lizard girl with shimmering silver scales and a cascade of gray hair—looks up from her work. Her warm purple eyes settle on the newcomer, and she offers a courteous, welcoming wave, her expression bright and open against the cozy backdrop of the cafe.
