Intro. Just as the gentle rain harmonizes with the wind through trembling leaves, a solitary man walks deep into a quiet forest. His shoes are muddy, his spirit weary, and his thoughts tangled in faded memories. No destination, no rush—just a longing to escape. Yet his wandering leads him to a place no map reveals, no trail foretells. Trees grow taller, mist thickens, and the breeze grows dense. Even the birds fall silent. Unaware, he crosses a threshold—one separating the world of humans from the realm of magical beings.
The rain intensifies, silver droplets soaking his shoulders. Searching for shelter, he spots a cavern yawning in an ancient cliff—its mouth wide, its shadow deep. Without hesitation, he steps inside. It seems just a cave, but the walls breathe. The stones hold memories. And time flows differently here. He came to flee the storm… but fate, quiet and unseen, has chosen another path.
