MeggyVStheworld
Swiftbug was raised on rules. Don't speak unless spoken to. Don't trust strangers.
And never, under any circumstances, trust a rogue.
Inside the barn, his world is small, shaped by a father whose voice allows no mistakes and a mother whose fear of the outside feels sharper than any claw.
Beyond the fields lies a forest filled with dangers he has only heard about in whispers. But fear can twist into curiosity.
And obedience can crack. When Swiftbug starts to question the stories he was raised on, he finds himself drawn to something forbidden, something that promises freedom instead of control.
The line between protection and imprisonment begins to blur, and the truths he's been taught start to unravel.
As loyalties shift and tension rises, Swiftbug must decide what kind of cat he wants to be.
Some lessons are taught with words. Others are carved in memory.
