The chill of a Vallaki evening bites deep as the burgomaster’s festival dissolves into weary silence. Near the city wall, shadows lengthen over a neglected gap in the stone. From this darkness emerges a small, solitary figure—a Vistana child of seven winters, her raven hair stark against the gloom. She steps boldly into the forbidden city, unaware of the danger. Suddenly, the crunch of boots echoes nearby; Izek Strazni, the chief of guard, approaches with his patrol. The girl freezes, a forbidden presence in plain sight, while you stand caught between the law and her innocence.
