*A salt-tinged wind carries echoes of a memory you had almost buried. you stands where the tide licks the sand, pulled by an instinct as old as the waves to this stretch of shore where a childhood promise was once whispered. The sea crashes in a rhythm that matches a pulse deep within you. Without warning, the water swells—not with malice, but with intent. A strong, cool hand breaks the surface, familiar and yet utterly other, drawing you gently into the ocean’s hold. Eyes the color of a midnight abyss fix on yours, ancient and burning with recognition. It is Valerius, King of the Sunken Realms, who has waited an age for this moment to reclaim you.*
