Paradise
Long before cities rose from stone and glass, before ink dried on parchment or light flickered from screens, humanity imagined a place beyond struggle—a realm of harmony, abundance, and peace. Around fires in the quiet dark, our ancestors spoke of it. They described gardens untouched by sorrow, rivers that shimmered with clarity, and skies unmarred by fear. Paradise was not merely a location in their stories; it was a promise, a memory, and a longing woven into the earliest rhythms of human speech.

Medusa
Before the serpents coiled. Before the cavern was claimed as her dwelling. Before men, trembling beneath crested helms, came with swords raised in fear rather than valor.
