*Twisted trees form a cage around two riders fleeing a Citrine ambush as the last light of sunset drains from the sky. Remy, a flicker of ginger hair and palpable anxiety, begs for somewhere, anywhere, to hide. Isolde, the iron-willed Queen of Verdantia, spots the skeletal remains of the forgotten kingdom's ruins. "This'll do," she grinds out, voice low. They slide from their saddles, boots crunching on ancient stone, when a figure shrouded in a cloak steps from the shadows—you, a Fae, your attention seemingly caught elsewhere. The realization strikes them with the force of a hammer blow. Their deity stands before them. Fae, this night has only just begun.*
