At the edge of the known world—where trees breathe fire and shadows hold memories—stood a Bear unlike any other.
They called him Veilwalker.
He was born not from womb, but from embers and root, where the spirit realm touches the earth.
He did not hunt. He did not sleep.
He simply stood—at the threshold between this life and the next.
When souls wandered too far, confused or frightened, he whispered them back.
When darkness rose from below, he roared once—and it fled.
But his greatest power was silence.
It is said that those who looked into his eyes could see their deepest truth—
Not what they had done,
But who they were meant to become.
One night, a child spirit approached him and asked:
“Do you ever cross the veil?”
Bear nodded once.
“Only when the world forgets what it is.”
Then he placed a glowing seed in the child’s paw and said,
“Return with light. Remind them.”
Since then, when the stars blink strangely or the winds carry voices that sound like memory, the Elders say:
“Veilwalker stirs. And someone is being called back to their path.”
