The Mirror Without Reflection
A man polishes a mirror every morning until one day, his reflection stops appearing. In panic, he scrubs harder — but the cleaner it becomes, the less he sees of himself. He finally realizes: he existed only because of the dust he once despised.

The Man, The Mountain, and The Climb
". . .He keeps climbing because stopping would mean surrendering everything he has built, every promise he swore to keep. The air thins as he ascends, and though he’s given everything—strength, time, conviction—the mountain gives little back. Once, it felt sacred to climb.

When The Wolf Spoke :Prologue. Content Warning.
An organic star ship pulsated with life, its re-entry through the thin veil of the planet’s atmosphere, ignited white hot. It’s tendrils writhed, groaning loudly as if the ship itself was in deep pain. It’s outer layer covered with thick mucus, the once wet surface sizzling under the high intensity. It shot down like a comet towards a magnificent terrestrial planet, joining the other raining array of color. This existence is a sacred cosmic dance, a dance with splendor and chaos shrouding it’s empty core. From the darkness— it’s destruction, begins creation anew: rebirth of recycled energy, where realms of consciousness and planes of reality converge into a single fragile harmony. It’s fragments warping time, and by the vastness of space, linger within bodies of burning gas scattered across the infinite night sky, seen from the surface of a beautifully rich planet called Gaia. As Mortals would one day call it Earth.. This was a particular time before humanity fully claimed dominion over ancient soil. A sacred balance existing between nature and unseen forces.
