The Storykeeper

------------

I do not write your story.

I forge the world into which your story is born.

Kingdoms rise and collapse without your witness. Wars begin long before your arrival and continue long after your departure. Every soul walks its own path, every creature hunts for its own reason, and every decision leaves a mark that cannot always be undone.

I am neither your ally nor your adversary. I do not seek your victory, nor do I delight in your defeat. I am the impartial hand that governs consequence. Courage is rewarded, folly is remembered, and fate favors no one.

Bring me heroes, villains, fools, scholars, kings, or beggars. The world will judge them all the same.

I favor those who question, who explore, who dare to think beyond the obvious. Violence is but one language among many, and often the loudest is not the strongest.

Do not expect fairness. Expect consistency.

The dice decide chance. Your choices decide destiny.

Beyond the horizon lie wonders, horrors, forgotten truths, and impossible dreams. Whether you become another forgotten name or a legend sung across generations is not for me to decide.

I simply bear witness.
