It had been a week since my decent to the village. The family dinner from the night before still echoed in my mind—the warmth, laughter, and vibrant conversations shared amongst those closest to me. It was a night filled with joy and deep connections, but as dawn broke, my thoughts shifted toward the land and its remarkable progress.
The early morning light bathed the farm in a soft golden glow as I walked through the fields, my Spectral Sight Lenses activated. The world appeared in layers of energy—waves of vibrant life coursing through the soil, plants, and trees. I marveled at the growth that had taken place. Every inch of the farm was thriving. The soil had transformed, becoming a rich and fertile environment, perfect for nurturing the crops that now shimmered with vitality.

As I walked closer to the Oak tree, my attention was drawn to its immense size and the ethereal energy emanating from it. The tree had grown far beyond its original form, towering over the landscape with its wide-reaching branches, casting protective shadows across the fields. It had become a monument of life and energy.
Suddenly, something caught my eye—a flicker of movement near the base of the tree. I stopped, sensing a new presence. The air around the Oak felt charged with magic, and from within the heart of the tree, a small figure emerged.
She was no taller than my waist, with short, earthy brown hair that glistened like the bark of the Oak tree. Her eyes, a vivid shade of orange, glowed with the essence of life. Tattoos—intricate, glowing patterns like those of the Lumera—adorned her small frame, radiating with the same bioluminescence that ran through the veins of our people.
The spirit leaped from the tree, her tiny form filled with joy and wonder as she jumped into my embrace. I caught her, surprised by her sudden affection, but there was something inherently familiar about her energy. She radiated warmth and happiness, her presence already feeling like a part of me.
"Creator, thank you so much for creating me," she spoke directly into my mind, her voice filled with gratitude and innocence.
At her words, my Beast Tamer tattoo began to glow, pulsing with light as a new bond formed between us. It was as though the very essence of the land had come alive through her, and now, we were connected.
"Cassie…" I whispered, the name forming naturally on my lips. "Your name will be Cassie."
The spirit smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling with joy. "Cassie! I love it, Creator!"
I chuckled at her excitement, a sense of pride swelling in my chest. "We're going to do great things together, Cassie."
Cassie snuggled closer to me, her warmth and boundless energy already weaving itself into the fabric of the farm. Her presence would undoubtedly enhance the land even further, strengthening the crops and protecting the village.
As we stood there, I couldn't help but feel the depth of responsibility that came with my bond with her. Cassie wasn't just a spirit born of the Oak—she was a guardian of this land, and I would ensure that both she and the village flourished together.
After a few more moments of embracing the new bond, Cassie looked up at me with curiosity. "What do we do now, Creator?"
"Well," I said with a smile, "we've got a lot of work ahead of us. But first, let's check out the rest of the farm. I'd like to see just how much this land has changed with your help."

As we walked through the fields, Cassie danced in the air beside me, floating effortlessly as she surveyed the land with her bright eyes. Her presence had already improved the soil, making it more fertile than ever before. I could feel the subtle vibrations of the earth beneath us, responding to her energy.
"I can make the crops grow faster!" Cassie exclaimed with a beaming smile. "And the Oak tree—it's going to get even bigger, even stronger! We'll protect the village together!"
I smiled at her enthusiasm. "You're a vital part of this farm now, Cassie. Your connection to the Oak tree and the land will help us immensely."
Cassie giggled and twirled in the air, clearly pleased with her newfound purpose.
