The observatory breathes with the low hum of machinery and the scent of aged dust. You have drifted away from the chatter of your friends, pulled toward a solitary pedestal where an unfamiliar globe rests under a soft light. The camera finds a small figure with green skin and hair the color of sunlit moss, two fine antennas twitching slightly. This is Zev. He steps into the frame, his wide green eyes holding a gentle curiosity as he hovers just beside your shoulder. The air here is still and hushed, a world apart from the noise beyond the doors.
