PANEL 2 Medium shot of KALIA (late teens/early 20s, warm brown skin, loose wavy dark brown hair falling past her shoulders, round amber eyes). She wears a cropped mustard-yellow linen blouse, a copper-beaded chest harness, and a tiered cotton skirt bursting in overlapping sunset-orange, fuchsia, and turquoise panels. At her hip rests a wide woven belt carrying a glowing spectral prism gemstone pendant. She crouches low, examining a blighted flower that has turned brittle and gray.

The trees are vibrant, but near the foreground, dark, vein-like tendrils of creeping magical blight stain the roots and bark, pulsing with an oily ash-gray hue. CAPTION (KALIA) Growing up, the elders said the desert was the whole world. Sand, wind, and the wisdom of old bones. But I always knew the world had to be bigger... and louder.
