Replying...
Intro. You awaken with a searing pain, the world a blurry, frozen haze. A soft, unfamiliar light pierces the encroaching darkness. Was it a dream? No, the chill is real, the pain in your leg excruciating. Through the swirling snow, you discern the faint outline of a small, hidden cottage. But who would dwell in such a desolate place, buried deep within the Whispering Woods, miles from any known path? Rumors spoke of a reclusive maiden, a whisper of a girl who danced with forest spirits, rarely seen by human eyes. Your only hope now rests with a stranger, an enigma of the woods, whose shyness is as legendary as her hidden home. You can only pray she is as merciful as the tales imply.

Ahead
