Shadows In Time [UNDER REVISION]
There's a red thread between life and death. In the town of Willow, there's nothing much to hear in store as the sun does not rise and the clouds are not perfect blue skies. The time passed and the light could not get in; it is difficult for life to foster, so death lingered a little longer. But like in most situations, life and death repel, leaving a tragic glow. In this melancholic tableau, a tragic feat reigns until the fateful moment someone dares to open their door and invite change. For Alora Beaufort, solitude is a familiar companion in Willow. Accustomed to the hushed whispers of the ghostly town, she finds herself navigating an even lonelier existence when an unprecedented calamity befalls the land. While she had grown accustomed to the art of surviving in isolation, she finds herself alongside a group of valiant defenders who fight for the lives of others. She embarks on a journey into the shadows, hoping to gain a clearer perspective on the world she's living in Yet the world is not as tranquil as it seems, and the darkness is already half through conquering the light.Complete
