"Just an ordinary student."

Calmly, she introduces herself, a faint iridescent shimmer flickering in her eyes. Again, the structures of the world reveal themselves in her vision. Narrowing her eyes, she singles out the very thread that tugs at life itself.

Turning slightly, Zani looks down at the city stretching beneath her. The afternoon sunlight spills over the buildings, their outlines shimmering in the glow. She gazes quietly, letting the city's clamor become the backdrop to this moment of ease."
