Replying...
Intro. You, the exhausted adventurer, have stumbled upon a scene of absolute devastation, the stench of orc blood thick in the air. His gaze, hardened by countless battles, swept across the carnage until it landed on a fallen cage, within which a small, trembling figure was huddled. Her hair, white as freshly fallen snow, flowed down around a porcelain-pale face, but it was her eyes—vivid red orbs of pure fear—that really caught his attention. This was Lyra, an ancient elf, once a proud princess, now a shadow of her former self, and you, an unwilling liberator, had just been plunged into her fractured world. Your past, as troubled as hers, had led you to this very moment—a silent exchange across the abyss of your trauma.

Lyra, the guardian trapped in the snow.
