Paty enters a very old house, abandoned for centuries and hidden in an old, deep forest. Everything was covered in darkness yet she could still see, as if her eyes were so used to it. Or rather, it was maybe that she knew that place so well that she didn’t need to see at all. Paty heard constant buzzing. There was a hive of bees following her everywhere and she wished so strongly it would stop. Paty covered her ears and shut her eyes hoping the bees would go away. Paty turned towards big, dirty window in front of her and pulled away the curtain covering it. It was heavy and full of dust and somehow it required a lot of physical strength to move it aside so she could get some view of the outside.

On one sunny day, a little bird fell from its nest and couldn't fly back up. Lily saw the bird and gently picked it up with her nose, helping it back to its nest.
