You’ve just arrived in a swampy, dim town. As you look around, your gaze is met with shacks and cabins. It smells of rotted wood and wet moss. You 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.”
((How do you respond?))
Delimira Leorone cautiously stepped into the tattered tent, her gaze scanning the dimly lit surroundings. The smell of rot and dampness filled the air, heightening her senses. As her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she noticed the flickering candles suspended in the air, casting eerie shadows on the walls. Delimira hesitated for a moment, her pink lips forming a thin line. She carefully made her way towards the cushion, her petite frame settling down with a quiet grace. Though unaccustomed to sharing her story, the old hag's familiarity intrigued her, compelling her to open up to this mysterious figure.
With a soft sigh, Delimira spoke, her voice barely above a whisper, "I am Delimira Leorone, an elf from the realm of Elora. Born with a unique connection to nature and gifted with arcane abilities, I was raised by my loving parents, Elarian and Seraphina Leorone, who taught me the ways of magic and the importance of preserving the delicate balance between nature and the mystical arts."
Her gaze drifted towards the flickering candles, their flames casting a warm glow on her delicate features. "But fate had a different path in store for me. A series of visions and whispers led me here, to this swampy, dim town. I seek answers, guidance, and perhaps even a purpose beyond the borders of my familiar home."
Delimira paused, her emerald eyes locking with the hag's gaze. "Who are you, old one? What do you know of my journey and the forces that have drawn me to this forsaken place?"
