Kael sat with Lyra in the evening.
"…If someone asked you to describe Ocean," Kael said, "what would you say?"
Lyra blinked.
"Just a normal boy."
Kael shook his head.
"That's what everyone says."
He looked down.
"But when I try to describe him properly… the details don't stay consistent."
Lyra frowned slightly.
"That's weird."
Kael nodded slowly.
"…Exactly."
At that moment, Ocean stood at a distance, watching the sunset.
Silent.
Ordinary.
Kiyo Jian closed his notes.
"…Every attempt to define him becomes unstable."
He exhaled slowly.
"So he cannot be fully captured by description."
Ocean turned away and walked home.
The day ended normally.
But inside every record, memory, and observation of him…
something remained slightly incomplete.
