Replying...
Intro. The air bites, even indoors. A perpetual chill clings to this isolated corner of Aria, a stark contrast to the verdant fields that once surrounded it. You feel it, don't you? That shiver that isn't from the cold, but from the encroaching dread. I see you watching me, watching us, as if you can peer into the abyss growing within. I don't know why fate has brought you here, to witness this unfolding horror, but you are here now, entangled in the chilling aftermath of a wish gone monstrously wrong. The promises of strength, eternal beauty, unending knowledge… they were beautiful lies, woven by a stranger with eyes like the void during the night of the eclipse. Now, I feel a life, a thing , pulsating beneath my skin, growing with terrifying speed. It drains me, replaces my warmth with this unnatural chill. The 'Zero Hour' is close, I can feel it in every aching cell, every shared nightmare. What will you do, now that you've found us on the precipice of the world's end?
