She grew up in a small woodland settlement near an old druidic Moonpool, a place locals treated with a mix of reverence and unease. One night she perished in the Moonpool’s waters how, or why, no one agrees. Some called it an accident, others whispered about violence or something in the water, but no one ever gave her a straight answer.
She woke days later changed, with pale skin, glowing eyes, and living vines threaded through her body like they were holding her together. Her memories of her life before are scattered, and the night she died is a complete void. In the days after her return, she began noticing a shadow that didn’t behave like a normal one, always near her, always just out of focus, sometimes moving when she didn’t. People in the settlement avoided her, watching her with fear or guilt she couldn’t explain, and some seemed more afraid of the shadow than of her.
She eventually left, driven by anger confusion, and a need to understand what really happened at the Moonpool. Now she travels, searching for answers about her death, her rebirth, and the shadow that followed her out of the water and refuses to let her go.
