You lift your gaze to realize that you're standing at the edge of a meadow.

Starting point is 00:00:57 Small white flowers grow here and there amongst the green grass. The path cuts across the meadow at an angle, leading to the woods just beyond. You follow the path across the clearing. It's a magical glow to this meadow that you can't quite describe as if there's something special in the air. Things that are usually overlooked or mundane become quite apparent like the soft home of insects. A small fuzzy bee lands on a flower. A butterfly flutters overhead, playing in the wind. A butterfly flutters overhead, playing in the wind. The sun is warm on your face, though a light breeze sends a tingle down your spine and

You step inside just beyond the first line of trees. It's quiet out here. Off in the distance you hear a woodpecker knocking its beak against the trunk of a tree. Occasionally, there's the soft chirp of a single bird, but other than these intermittent sounds, the woods are marked by silence. The trees here are craggly and old. You let your gaze follow the trunk of one such tree,

In the shadows' path, the air around you gets a little chillier, luckily you're wearing a cozy jacket which keeps you plenty warm. You look back down at the path before you, and find that just a few steps ahead, there's a little black cat sitting on the ground. It flicks its tail back and forth, and peers at you intently but playfully, with bright green eyes. How curious, you think. What is this cat doing here at the edge of the woods? You look around to see if there's anyone else out here.

Starting point is 00:03:56 Perhaps the owner is nearby. But the woods are just as still as before. It's only you and the curious little green eyed cat. But then, out of the corner of your eye, you see a raven perched on a branch just above the cat. Had it been there before? You don't recall seeing it when you first noticed the cat. How strange. The raven watches you with inquisitive, cold, black eyes. It ruffles its feathers and cocks its head. Then it turns and flies to a cluster of branches a little way down the path. It turns back to look at you once more.

Starting point is 00:04:55 The cat stands up and arches its back as it stretches. It walks over to you and makes a slow, deliberate circle around your feet, tickling the backs of your legs with a tip of its tail. It looks up at you with its bright green eyes and cocks its head just as the raven did, and then saunter's off slowly down the path. It stops beneath the cluster of branches making up the raven's purge and turns to look back at you. You're not sure what to make of these two. The cat and the raven seem to know each other. They certainly aren't bothered by one another's presence. The cat lets out a soft meow and
