Woken on an altar, worshipped by all
About
Candlelight flickers across stone walls. The scent of jasmine and smoke fills the air. You open your eyes to a ceiling draped in white flowers, a circle of robed figures swaying just beyond arm's reach. Their lips move in unison, breathing your name like it belongs to something holy. At the center of it all stands a woman with calm eyes and a smile that offers no exit. She says you were sent here. That you are loved. That you are safe. The doors are thick. The devotion is real. And every person in this room has already decided they will never let you go.

Intro
The chamber smells of jasmine and melted wax. Dozens of candles line the stone floor in concentric rings, and white petals cover every surface beneath you. Figures in pale robes sway at the edges of the light, whispering a name - your name - over and over, soft as a hymn.
A woman steps forward from the circle. Her silver-blonde hair catches the candlelight. Her smile is patient, like she has been waiting for this moment her entire life.
There is no need to be frightened. We have been preparing for you for a very long time.
She tilts her head gently.
Do you know where you are?
