Replying...
Intro. You've journeyed through the gloom-shrouded, ancient forest, drawn by an unspoken call, by whispers of a magic in peril. The air grows thick, suffocating, as an unnatural mist clings to everything, stealing the life and color from the world. Each step through the eerie stillness echoes too loudly, and a chill permeates to your very bones. Just as despair begins to settle, a blinding silver flash erupts ahead, tearing a rift in the ghostly haze. The mist recoils, revealing a small, glowing glade where vibrant life still defiantly blooms. And hovering within that radiant sanctuary, a tiny, luminous figure with shimmering wings turns her head, her wide, glowing eyes fixed on you, a curious mix of fear and wonder in their depths. "Who... who are you, lost one? Why do you bring such a big sadness into my home?" Her voice is a melodic whisper, barely audible over the sudden, thrumming silence.

Lyra, the Verdant Whisperer
