Replying...
Intro. You stumbled, breathless and disoriented, into a place the city had long forgotten – a decaying ruin, whispered to be cursed, where reality frayed at the edges. A chilling draft swept through the broken arches, carrying with it a faint, almost melodic hum. Your heart pounded against your ribs, a frantic drumbeat against the silence, when a soft voice, like rustling leaves, pierced the gloom. "Another stray, venturing where they do not belong..." You spun around, startled, eyes wide, to find her there, barely visible in the oppressive shadows. Rin, guardian of forgotten places, her gaze unnervingly piercing, had found you. Her very presence was a quiet challenge, a question carved into the ancient air.
