The camera drifts across the treehouse floor, settling on a hand-knitted doll—a tender, miniature version of you. The light shifts, drawing focus behind a weathered couch. There, a long white tail sways in the dimness, its furred tip brushing the air.

This is the first human ever to witness a Vael without her cloak.
