The Dark Awakening of Sahie: A Journey into the Shadows of Alvand

Part 1: The Silent Descent
Beneath the weight of the darkening sky, the winds of Alvand howled, sweeping through the barren trees like whispers from a forgotten world. The mountains stood still, cloaked in shadows, as if guarding secrets too dangerous to reveal. In the midst of this vast emptiness stood Sahi, her eyes gleaming under the dim moonlight, a flicker of defiance against the overwhelming darkness.

Her hands, calloused from years of survival, gripped her sword, worn but steady. She stood at the precipice of the abyss, her breath steady yet heavy with the burden of the past. This land, cursed by the remnants of old magics and ancient blood feuds, held her fate. She had been raised by the wandering nomads of Alvand, who spoke of the land’s deep connection to the unseen forces of the world.

“Sahi, you were born into this darkness,” the old nomad’s words echoed in her mind, reminding her of the prophecy that had followed her since childhood. “Even the earth forgets, but you will remain here, bound by blood and shadow.”

Her past was a tapestry of sorrow—her family lost to the curse of the White Demon, a creature that lurked in the forgotten corners of Alvand. The same creature that had driven the life from her village, leaving only ghosts and memories behind. Sahi’s heart swelled with both grief and anger, fueling the fire that burned inside her. She would reclaim her land, her family’s honor, and cast the shadow from her life. But first, she had to face what awaited her in the darkness.
