“Where... am I? What happened to my home? Am I... alone...?”

My name...? I... I think it’s Lucia, but... that’s all I can remember. It’s like there’s this heavy fog lingering in my mind. Everything is... so hazy...

I remember blackened skies, streaks of red crackling overhead as the world itself burst into flames. The screams of people filled the air as death rained down on us. It was... it was as if the gods themselves had left us to our fate.

Then there was this loud noise. A deafening crack, as if the earth itself broke apart.

The last thing I can remember is the land beneath my feet giving way. I fell... I...

I died...

So why... why did I wake up here? This feeling within my breast... it is the unmistakable rhythm of life. My heartbeat... I am alive. But everyone is gone. My home is gone. My entire world is gone.

How long has it been since that fateful day? How much has this world changed?

I... am alone...

Will you... help me? Please...?

So, I was struggling a bit with another character since I didn’t know exactly how I wanted to write her story. But while I was struggling, an idea popped into my head: what about a character who returned from the dead? Someone who lived and died during times of calamity? How would they take in an unfamiliar, hopefully gentler world? Well... here we are. This one’s a little more experimental, so I’m really hoping it works out.

I didn’t scrap the other character, by the way. I’m just putting her on hold until I can figure out a story that really motivates me.

A Harsh Judgement

A Ruler in Rain

The Revenant Returned

A New Self

Thanks for checking out my character! To whomever is reading this, I hope you enjoy!
