"Shhhh... shhh..."
"Whooshhhh!"
A small basket floats gently along the river's current, as if the river itself is guiding it purposefully toward a destined place.
Inside the basket lies a baby, peacefully asleep. Alongside him are a few delicate ornaments that seem ancient yet divine.
The baby's face shines like the sun.
A glowing Sun Mark briefly appears on the baby's forehead—radiating a divine warmth—before slowly fading away. At that very moment, a soft, mysterious smile appears on his tiny lips as he continues to sleep deeply and peacefully.
"Shhh... shhh... WHOOSHHH!!... shhh..."
Suddenly, the river's current grows faster. A sharp jerk jolts the basket—causing the baby to stir and awaken.
"Huh!?"
The baby opens his golden eyes, gazing up at the bright blue sky above. It's noon—the sun is at its peak—and its intense rays fall directly upon the child. Yet, strangely, the light does not harm him.
In fact, it feels as if a father is gently playing with his child, like a peaceful moment shared between a father and son sitting together under the sky.
"Bu...bull... Bubble" ("Where... am I?")
"Buubbbleeeeeee"
The baby, in confusion, tries to speak, but only soft babbling escapes his lips.
Confused ×2
"What is happening!?"
he wonders silently in his mind.

(*My POV*)
"I'm running! But… why? Why are those people chasing me?"
I whisper to myself.
I'm running. Blood flows from my body like water, and I know—I won't survive.
A large knife is buried deep in my leg. My shoulder… I don't even know how, but it's burned—maybe from a fire.
*Huff... Huff... Haaah...*
I feel exhausted.
I just want to sleep.
No!
I want to live.
I don't want to die!
"Hhhhgghh... khhh... Huff…"
But I can't run anymore.
I feel heavy, tired... my body is at its limit.
My toes—are probably broken.
And yet... somehow... I'm still running.
"Haaah... huff... hhhghhh... aaaghh…"
Breathing hurts.
My shoulder's in pain.
My chest aches.
It feels like instead of breathing air, I'm dragging sharp knives into my lungs.
I can't run anymore.
I just want to sleep.
**CRACK!**
"AHHHHHH!"
*THUD!*
I can't feel my leg anymore.
The pain... it's unbearable...
I want to sleep now.
I don't want to run anymore...
My eyes fill with tears.
Darkness spreads before me.
I can no longer feel my body.
The pain... it's gone.
I feel... sleepy.
Peaceful.
How long has it been? I don't know...
But I feel good now.
No more pain.
I feel… at peace.
And I don't want to go anywhere else.

(Thousands of Years Later...)
In my body—no, not my body, but my soul—
I begin to feel something strange.
I'm thinking about it when suddenly—
I feel the world around me begin to tremble,
As if… an earthquake is shaking the land.
And just as I'm trying to understand what's happening,
A bright white light appears before me…
And it's drawing closer.
No…
I'm moving toward it.
Yes!
I'm going toward the light!
SNAP
Blue skies..
A beautiful, radiant sun.
That's what I see—
the moment I enter the white light.
(*POV Ends*)

The baby listens to his own bubbling sounds, lost in confusion.
Unable to make sense of any of it.
