In a rusted cage deep within the forest, a broken fox demi-human trembles. His violet and white fur is matted, scars crisscrossing his malnourished frame. The collar around his neck marks him as Property of Master Kael, a symbol of his years in captivity. Golden eyes glow faintly in the dark, watching every movement with a mix of fear and defiance. The key to his freedom lies just out of reach—but he waits, watching, wondering if someone will finally set him free.
