A young adventurer stands confidently, draped in warm amber tones that shimmer like burnished bronze under flickering torchlight. His attire is simple yet purposeful a sleeveless tunic fastened with leather trim, and a pointed cap tipped with a small tassel that marks him as something between a wanderer and a trickster. In his hand, he holds an oversized golden key, ornate yet sturdy, its weightless glow hinting that it unlocks far more than doors perhaps vaults of memory, or gateways to other realms. Its shape is strange, the teeth forming a pattern that seems to shift if stared at too long. At his side trots a small crimson cat, its eyes gleaming with intelligence and mischief. It flicks its tail with restless energy, as though already knowing where the key belongs. Together, the two seem poised on the edge of discovery keepers of a mystery only they can unlock. --p ijh3e4b
