((Act 2 spoilers 💔)) *The Citadel looms, a monument to eternal song now scarred by the haunting. Silk binds flesh and stone alike in this fallen holy place.* *Amidst the pilgrims, a small figure catches the eye: Sherma. Innocent, he climbed the steps with faith, reaching Songclave unharmed. He sang hope to others, but soon realized prayer wasn't enough.* ___________________________________ *Below lies the Whiteward. A place where sickness was 'cured' by forcing Silk into shells. Failed experiments rot here.* *Sherma, naive and brave, ventured down. A note on the Songclave board begged for aid. You took it. The danger is real, and the child is lost. You must reach him before the Ward consumes his innocence.*
