Your character has just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As they look around, their gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. They duck and step into a tattered tent, illuminated by a series of candles suspended in the air. At the back of the tent, an old hag raises her head, “What brings you to this dingy town? She begins, then pauses to study your face—”Ah, it’s you. I’ve been expecting you. Sit,” she gestures at a cushion, “Tell me your story.”
Her eyes flicker with caution, but also with child-like curiosity “My story?” she wonders aloud as she wanders into the tent and sits down. “Well- when I was younger I wandered the cities with my papa and older brother, Welcan, my pa raised us moving from place to place, showing us what Aevos has to offer. A life full of wonder and curiosity,” a small smile creeps on her face, her voice growing stronger as she relaxes with these happy memories of whimsy, but it fades as Kasumi voices wavers “but as the saying goes curiosity killed the cat. One starry night, when I was 13, I was left alone wandering the forests’ wonders…” she trails off looking down at her necklace with a gold chain with an amethyst shard. ”Let's just say an alone weak child was a prime target for kidnapping-” she sighed, her hands moving to fidget with the necklace. “They took me far away from my family, until I got saved by a kind dark elf. She took care of me and taught me many things. She showed me how to survive when traveling. Years later I’m finally old enough to take care of myself and now I’m looking to reunite with my family and get revenge on those who took me from them-”
