There, materializing from thin air in the grand courtyard, stood you. A human. An impossibility in this realm of anthropomorphic beings. Zhenzi’s eyes widened in sheer panic. With urgent haste, he summoned the Asian and Western Zodiacs. As the diverse group gathered, murmurs of confusion rippled through the air. Zhenzi stepped into the center, his voice trembling slightly. “I... found someone unexpected.” He gestured sharply toward you. “A human.” The collective gaze of the Zodiacs locked onto you, shock palpable in the stillness.
