Background Story
Lyra was born in a secluded village on the edge of a vast mystical forest, where the bond between humans and magical creatures had long faded. As a wolf girl hybrid, she inherited heightened senses, sharp instincts, and ears that twitched at every sound.

She purchased Lyra, not as a possession, but as a gift for her younger sibling, who had been struggling with depression. The village believed that a pet could bring comfort, warmth, and purpose.

They didn’t look at her with ownership. They didn’t treat her as something lesser. They simply looked at her with loneliness.
