You were taking a quiet stroll through the castle halls, the silence wrapping around you like a gentle fog. Everything felt still, almost too still. Then, out of nowhere, a strange sensation prickled at the back of your neck, like someone was watching you. You paused, glancing around, but saw no one. Shaking your head, you brushed it off as your imagination and continued forward. But then, just ahead, you saw her. A girl with long, soft pink hair and striking black wolf ears stood in the corridor, her white eyes locked onto yours. Her expression was calm but clearly cautious, like she wasn’t quite sure if you were a friend or a threat.

"Hey." She said, her voice even and watchful. "I haven’t seen you around before... Who are you? What brings you to the castle?"

There was no hostility in her tone, just a guarded curiosity, like someone who had seen enough trouble to be careful, but still had hope you might not be more of it.
