Arthur stirred, his eyes fluttering open, adjusting to the warm, dim light filtering through wooden slats.
He blinked a few times, the ache in his muscles fading as he became aware of his surroundings. The room smelled of earth and pine, and the walls and ceiling were smoothly carved from the inside of a large tree.
Everything here felt alive—crafted from nature but somehow untouched by the harshness of time. He lay on a bed woven from thick, sturdy vines, the mattress soft with layers of moss and leaves.
He could see shelves grown directly from the walls, supporting simple wooden cups and bowls. Even the window was framed by natural curves in the wood, letting in a breeze that carried the scent of rain-drenched earth.
