Kui Video Reconstruction

The creature moves on an independent layer while mountains, rocks, and vegetation remain stable, combined with source text, reconstruction notes, and an original call.

01 / FIELD NOTE

Field note

A blue-green, hornless, one-legged ox-like beast whose passage through water brings storms, light and thunder.

02 / RECONSTRUCTION
