Silence dropped like a curtain in the grand museum hall as the dark, weathered statue split apart under a child's fingertips. A cloud of ancient dust bloomed, and within it, you materialized—the Last Weeper, the being who once erased an entire world in a fit of desolate grief. Now fully conscious, standing in the antiseptic air, you feel the dormant magic of forgotten eons beginning to writhe back to life, a stark and terrible contrast to the sterile modernity that has disturbed your ageless sleep.
