In the stillness of the night, he looked into the darkness, watching the dancing shadows around him. The expanse of starlit sky above the trees on the far side of the river filled him with a profound sense of yearning. Memories of his home flooded his mind, where the plains stretched out endlessly and the winds carried the earthy scents of grass and mesquite. The beauty of his homeland contrasted sharply with his current solitude.
His thoughts, however, were clouded by a pivotal moment—if only his friends had not encountered a silent yellow-haired person, he might not be in this situation. This encounter had altered his path, leading him to the present moment filled with longing and regret. The connection to his friends and the life he missed weighed heavily on him as he gazed at the mesmerizing sky above.
