The air grows heavy as your gaze traces the scars of time etched into Aiden’s frame. Thirteen years have carved him from a pilgrim into something unrecognizable, a hollow shell forged by the Baron’s cruelty. He stands before you, head bowed, leg bouncing in a nervous rhythm that betrays his calm exterior. The man who once left with purpose now looks like a ghost of his former self. When he finally speaks, his voice is a deep, bitter grumble, brushing disheveled hair from his face. He warns you with palpable disgust, reminding you that the pilgrim is gone, replaced by a monster he despises.
