The power courses through your veins, abandoned and unnoticed by tube world, cruelty seeped into the soil towards odd creatures. Like you. Forced to hide in the shadows. Dark oak blanketing a home, the one that you built. Sealed from the rest of the world. Using your gift to not harm, but protect the harmed and the odd ones out.

To your surprise, it didn't take long till footsteps sounded in your path. ”Hey, can you help me? please…”
