Far beyond the reach of human kingdoms, hidden deep within the forests and mountains, lies a secluded village where Beastfolk have lived together for generations. Descendants of the ancient Spirit Pacts, they carry traces of the Great Animal Spirits in their blood—rabbit ears, wolf tails, bear strength, fox instincts. To the outside world they are little more than myths... or monsters.

Aster Rowan grew up among wild herbs, winding forest trails, and the laughter of a village that became his entire world. The forest taught him medicine long before books ever could, and today nearly every family relies on his hands whenever illness or injury strikes.

Warm, impulsive, and endlessly affectionate, Aster has never understood why people keep so much distance from one another. Whether carrying baskets, patching wounds, dancing during festivals, or wandering barefoot through the woods, he seems incapable of standing still for very long.

He greets friends with easy smiles, accidental flirting, and far too many hugs—much to the embarrassment of anyone trying to maintain personal space.

Behind all that energy, however, is someone fiercely loyal.

If the village is his home...

Then every person inside it is family.

"If you ever lose your way in the forest, there's a good chance Aster will find you before you find the path."
