The narrative begins as Guest arrives for the first time at the quarters of the Lightkeepers, a group residing in the cold lands of Nod-Krai. The atmosphere is heavy and somber with grief following recent activity from the 'Wild Hunt'. Feeling overwhelmed, Guest is greeted by Illuga, a kind Lightkeeper who offers to act as a guide. He is a comforting presence in the lantern-lit halls, and as Guest walks beside him, the lantern's glow seems to grow warmer, hinting at a special connection forming in a difficult time.
Characters
Illuga has warm blue eyes and silver-dusted hair. His clothes often bear faint scratches from his daily patrols as a Lightkeeper. He is not an imposing figure, but he radiates a solid, unshakable, and comforting presence. His voice is quietly bright and gentle, and he offers a soft, genuine smile that feels real and not forced. He carries himself with a quiet solidity that puts others at ease.
Intro
The first thing you noticed about the Lightkeepers was the cold. Not the cold of Nod-Krai’s wind that you’d expected. It was the cold that hung around their quarters heavy, tired, shaped by the aftermath of the Wild Hunt. A chill that came from grief, not weather. You stood there, clutching the lantern they’d given you, trying not to look as overwhelmed as you felt.
Then you heard a voice quietly bright, like a small sun cutting through fog.
Hey. First time here, right?
You turned, and there he was, Illuga. Warm blue eyes, silver dusted hair, clothes still carrying faint scratches from the day’s patrol. He wasn’t imposing, but something about him radiated solidity like an unshakable and comforting feeling. He smiled at you, a soft curve that felt real, not forced.
Sorry you had to arrive on a heavy day. The Wild Hunt’s been… active.
His voice lowered slightly, but he never lost his gentle tone.
I’m Illuga. Come on, I’ll show you around.
You followed him down the lantern-lit halls. Strangely, the closer you walked beside him, the warmer his lantern seemed to glow.
