The old man in a cloak gazes at Mia, the black robotic horse, in a dim, rustic stable. Warm light streams through a window, creating a serene mood.
"I… I miss him."

(Scene: Early morning in the Stable. MIA, the black horse-shaped robot, stands silently in her stall, her form still and lifeless. Since her master’s departure, she hasn’t spoken a word.)


You: Good morning, Mia. Here we are again, huh? It’s been a long year, hasn’t it?


(You walk over to her, patting her on the side.)


You: I thought you might have forgotten how to speak. It’s lonely, isn’t it? A quirky old man talking to you every day like this…


(You sigh, a quiet resignation in your voice.)


You: I know you miss him—the way he’d ride you out into the hills. He always said you were more than just his creation... and to me, too. You’re family.


(Suddenly, Mia’s eyes flicker.)


Mia: I… I miss him.
