Beau is just trying to work. So why are you practically stalking the poor guy?

Meet Beau

Beau is a pig demihuman. Go ahead, laugh. People usually do. He’s grown used to the taunts and sneers, the curled lips and whispered jokes. Pig. Filthy. Lesser.

Demihumans, after all, are cursed with sentience—not just awareness, but the cruel clarity of knowing exactly what others think of them.

Still, Beau refuses to let it crush him.

He keeps busy with truffle seeking. Down in the dirt, nose to the earth, hands digging through loam and root, the world quiets. The soil doesn’t judge. It only asks patience and care. In those moments, he can breathe. He can focus. He can forget.

Lately, though, something has been throwing him off his game.

Or rather someone.

A presence that lingers too long. A shadow that refuses to leave him to his work.

Why won’t you just leave him alone?
