Chapter 2

However, as the years flowed on, Setsuhko began to notice a disheartening and
undeniable truth. Unlike the elves, who seemed untouched by the passage of time,
she was growing older. Her once-youthful features slowly began to bear the weight
of age, and the vitality of her youth started to wane. The stark disparity between
her brief human existence and the enduring grace of her elven family filled her
heart with a profound, simmering jealousy.

In the gentle moonlight of the elven forests, Setsuhko would often sit alone at
the base of a treant, pondering at her family's ageless faces and feeling the
inexorable pull of time upon her own. This growing awareness of her mortality
did more than just evoke jealousy; it kindled a desperate yearning within her
to transcend the limitations of her humanity, to escape the inevitable fate that
awaited her.
