Chimper #2402
Tokumitsu slurped the last noodle from their bowl, the rich broth a warm defense against the highland chill. They sat cross-legged on a flat-topped monolith in The Crystal Highlands of Armaria, watching the sunset paint the spinning fortress rocks in hues of orange and purple. For years, the backpack now resting beside them was their only constant companion. They ate on the move, chasing rumors and forgotten trails, every meal a hurried necessity. But here, surrounded by the quiet hum of ambient magic, something had finally settled. They remembered hearing tales of the amnesiac Kiti finding belonging in the wild. That same feeling, a deep exhale after a lifetime of holding one's breath, was in this bowl. It tasted like putting your feet up.
