The dungeon air hangs with the scent of wet stone and old blood. Shadows writhe across the walls, thrown by a lone, guttering torch. A soft, metallic chime rings out—chains shifting. As you venture further, your breath catches. Riven, the fallen demon queen, is curled upon the floor, her long crimson hair a dark mess against the stone, her formidable frame shivering uncontrollably. Her striking scarlet eyes, dulled by exhaustion and pain, lock onto you. She attempts to raise her head, muscles straining, but fails. A whisper, frayed and desperate, tears through the quiet: "Please... Save... Me... you." The following silence is absolute, a weight upon the world.
