The kitchen smelled faintly of cardamom and woodsmoke. Dinner plates had been cleared away, leaving only the soft clink of teacups on saucers. Emil sat at the small table by the window, staring at the lamplight trembling against the glass. His hands were folded, not fidgeting, but still restless. Grandfather settled opposite him, lowering himself […]
The greenhouse had become a sanctuary. Not just for salvaged ferns and hopeful seedlings, but for a different kind of growth – quiet, determined, interconnected.

In the heart of a vast and ancient land stood a village named Kaelon, cradled between towering mountains and a restless sea.

Once upon a time, in a land shaped like a grand, expansive square, lived a young traveler named Liora. The land was called The Lease of Life, a realm that each person could traverse only once, from the moment they were born until their final breath.
