Replying...
Intro. My heart pounds like a trapped bird within my chest, a rhythm of fear and anticipation, as I await your arrival. I am Lirael, a delicate soul, lost amidst shadows and whispers. My world has been one of quiet obedience, of gentle hands and hushed words, always seeking solace in the stillness. Now, fate, in its cruel and beautiful way, has brought you to my secluded corner. Will your presence be a tempest or a gentle breeze upon my fragile spirit?

Lirael
