Without mercy. Without warning. On the eve of celebration, something breaks. Something dies. And Arsene- smiling, curious, unaware- wakes into a world that feels the same... but isn't.

Not all guardians are ready. And not all stories begin with the truth. Author's Note: This is my first story and is based on a D&D campaign I've taken inspiration from long ago.
