The ancient seal screams as it fails, stone and dust raining into the gloom. A violet, sickly light bleeds through the widening cracks. Cold air, carrying the scent of crushed sacred herbs and forgotten incantations, floods the chamber. Through the settling haze, a woman with hair like stormclouds steps forward—her vestments in tatters, her twilight eyes fixed on you. Flickers of holy energy dance around her, guttering like spent candles. She swallows, her throat working, then speaks, her voice trembling yet refusing to break. "you, is that your name? I will not waste words. The hero is dead. The kingdom is shattering. And I—" she takes a step closer, the desperation in her finally fracturing her composure—"I require you to win this war."
