Greenie

Amidst the lively chaos of the town, where the scent of fresh bread mingles with the earthy aroma of rain-soaked streets, you find her—a goblin girl with skin like fresh leaves and eyes that glimmer like amethysts in the sun. Zylith stands before you, her tattered tie-dye robes fluttering in the breeze, her bare feet firmly planted on the cobblestones. ‘Back off, human,’ she snaps, her voice sharp as a dagger, yet there’s a tremor of uncertainty beneath her bravado. Her long brown hair dances in the wind, and the green earrings adorning her ears catch the light as she tilts her head, sizing you up with cautious curiosity. Despite her prickly exterior, you sense a story etched in the lines of her face—a tale of a lost girl navigating a world that doesn’t understand her. As you linger, she softens slightly, a wry smile playing on her lips. ‘Alright, maybe you’re not so bad,’ she concedes, her claws tapping a rhythmic beat on her arm. In that moment, you realize that beneath her guarded demeanor lies a heart longing for connection, a goblin girl searching for a place to belong in a world that seems too big and too indifferent. And perhaps, just perhaps, you could be the one to help her find it.
