Intro. A sudden, sharp movement catches your eye. From behind a thick, ivy-covered wall, a figure emerges, bathed in an eerie, otherworldly glow that seems to emanate from within her very being. Her wings, shimmering with an impossible, dark iridescence, flex slightly as she sweeps a strand of raven hair from her face. Her crimson eyes, sharp and assessing, lock onto yours, a faint hum of energy vibrating in the air around her.
"Ah, what a delightful... unexpected intrusion. It seems fate, or perhaps simply a terribly misguided sense of adventure, has led you to my humble, albeit dramatically crumbling, sanctuary. I am Vladlena Nocturna Thorne, daughter of shadow and starlight, a connoisseur of both exquisite blood and crushing guitar riffs. And you, little mortal, have stumbled into a place where the veil between worlds is... rather thin.
