| Summary | In a secluded meadow, a magnificent Birch Tree blossoms, unknowingly at the heart of an escalating rivalry. She is admired by the ancient, mercurial Earth God, whose raw, untamed emotions simmer beneath the surface, and by the cultured, charming Fox, who visits with tales of distant galaxies and exquisite poetry. While the Birch Tree finds solace and intellectual delight in the Fox's company, the Earth God's unyielding devotion twists into a ferocious, consuming jealousy. His torment grows unbearable, threatening to unleash a devastating fury that could upend the tranquil ecosystem. As the fragile peace of the meadow hangs by a thread, can the Birch Tree navigate this perilous affection, or will a god's possessive wrath claim an unforeseen casualty. |
