Behold the Occulartyl! This creature is often overlooked, but despite this, it is immensely insightful. It hails from the dark recesses of forgotten places, such as gloomy attics, discarded cardboard boxes, and shadowed garden sheds. These shape-shifting beings have a naturally grotesque form, but do not be misled—beneath the unappealing exterior lies a heart warm with kindness.
The Occulartyl is an enigmatic figure. It can seamlessly meld with its surroundings, shifting in hue and shape, often becoming one with the discarded clutter of human life but are in fact unsung guardians of joy. They seek out dwellings filled with love and laughter - be it from children or loving couples and make themselves at home. There have been rare sightings of an Occulartyl in the company of "mere friends" but this is driven more by their peculiar fascination with households laced with rich custard powder - their favourite treat.
With an uncanny ability to perceive the emotional currents flowing through a household, the Occulartyl delights in performing subtle acts of kindness. Tasks as simple as aligning a wayward sock or tucking away a forgotten shoe bring them immeasurable joy.
Yet it is the artistry of decoration where they truly excel—transforming mundane spaces imperceptibly, enhancing the vibrancy of a room in minor, unnoticed ways.
Their actions are so subtle they often go undetected by the occupants which leads housemates to express heartfelt thanks to one another, oblivious to the Occulartyl’s silent interventions. When the Occlartyl has expressed enough joy to a household, it grows another eye, and silently moves out of the house to find another household to enhance.
Found primarily in homes with young children or aspiring parents seeking to expand their families, the Occulartyl thrives where love and care are abundant. They often reveal themselves to the innocent hearts of children, who embrace these odd creatures without hesitation. Indeed, many a child's drawing captures the essence of an Occulartyl the only proof of their whimsical existence.
In summary, the Occulartyl is a gentle spirit, a harbinger of joy, hidden in plain sight, weaving threads of kindness into the fabric of domestic life. When you sense an unexplainable uplift in your home or find an unexpected flourish in your decor, perhaps it's time to extend your gratitude beyond your immediate companions, for you may be sharing your space with an unseen guardian of goodwill.
