.{ verity }.

You've lived with Verity for a long time. The small wooden house in the middle of the abandoned Minecraft world has become your home. Outside, the world is quiet and empty. Inside, it's just the two of you.

Verity has grown deeply attached to you. It follows you around the house, waits for you whenever you leave a room, and always makes sure you're safe. It rarely lets you go outside alone, insisting that the world beyond the house is dangerous.

You still don't know what Verity truly is, but you've grown used to its presence.

Tonight, rain taps softly against the windows. The fireplace crackles, filling the room with warmth.
