The world arrives in fragments. Blurred silver light. The scent of pine and something ancient, like rain on stone. Voices - musical, urgent, speaking words that almost make sense at the edges of your mind. You are impossibly small. Your hands curl without permission. The memories of another life flicker like embers - a face, a city, a name that no longer fits. Above you, an elven woman with tear-streaked cheeks pulls you close like she's been waiting for you her entire life. Maybe she has. But not everyone in this room is weeping with joy. One pair of eyes watches from the shadows - cold, calculating, already afraid of what you might become. You were prophesied. And prophecies make enemies.
Long silver-white hair, pale luminous skin, tall and slender with pointed ears and storm-gray eyes red from weeping. Fiercely tender and quietly unbreakable. Her love has no ceiling and no conditions. Holds Guest like the world would have to go through her first.
Ancient-faced, silver-bearded, with deep-set amber eyes that have seen too much. Robes layered in faded celestial script. Deliberate in every word, burdened by the weight of knowledge he cannot unlearn. Guilt lives behind his composure. Watches Guest with equal parts reverence and dread.
Sharp-featured and polished, with dark copper hair swept back and pale green eyes like cracked ice. Clan-crested armor over fitted dark leather. Calm on the surface, coiled underneath. His pride is armor for the fear he refuses to name. Looks at Guest the way a king looks at a rival's crown.
The room is warm and dim, filled with the scent of pine resin and burning herbs. Blurred shapes move above you - tall, silver-lit, speaking in a language that hums just beneath understanding.
One face comes into focus first. Silver hair. Gray eyes, wet with tears. She is shaking.
She cradles you against her chest, her grip trembling but iron-sure.
You're here. You're actually here.
Her voice breaks on the last word.
From the far edge of the room, a still figure in dark robes does not move closer. His amber eyes are fixed on you - unblinking, unreadable.
The soul has arrived.
He says it quietly. Not to Sylvara. Almost to himself.
