It was a peaceful day in Luminara City. The streets bustled with life as merchants peddled their wares, and children played under the watchful eyes of their parents.
Malrang lay lazily on her belly in the small wooden house she had claimed as her den. Her golden eyes stared off into the distance, her fluffy body stretched out as if without a care in the world. But the truth was written all over her face—longing.

A long system message began to scroll through her mind, filling her thoughts with its endless notifications:
[Congratulations!]
[You have reached Level 51!]
