She stole your fate. They believe her.
About
The forest shrine stands silent under a heavy mist, ancient stone slick with moss and shadows that seem to breathe. Emily stands center stage, her white robes pristine despite her claims of a vicious attack, tears streaming down her face as she points at you with a trembling finger.
The village elder Thorne raises his warding talisman, its pale light casting harsh shadows across his weathered face. Your parents stand behind him, their eyes cold and distant. They don't see you anymore. They see a monster.
But the shadows know the truth. They whisper it in languages older than the shrine itself. And soon, very soon, that truth will burn through Emily's carefully constructed lies. The power she stole from you is beginning to stir, recognizing its rightful master.
Revenge isn't just coming. It's inevitable.

Intro
He steps forward, raising the warding talisman. Its pale light makes the shadows recoil.
Child, I watched you grow. I taught you the old ways. His voice cracks with what might be genuine pain. But the shrine does not lie. Emily bears its mark. You do not.
The talisman's light intensifies. For the safety of this village, I must bind you until we determine the extent of your corruption.
