Spirits (Spoilers)
Name: Hemera
Spirit: Child of Daylight
Spirit Description:
[A luminous bird, wreathed in flames, stood upon a desolate plain, her molten-gold eyes fixed upon the boy who lay upon the grass, gazing at the endless abyss of the night sky. The stars shimmered above, distant and untouchable, mirroring the quiet longing in his gaze.
Curious, she stepped closer. He sensed her presence, yet unlike the others who feared or sought to claim her radiance, he merely smiled—a bright, knowing smile.
"I will hurt you," he murmured, his voice a whisper against the wind.
The phoenix inclined her regal head, lifting her gaze once more. Her life was nearing its end. Even she, a child of the sun, could not defy the creeping rot of corruption. She had been born into ruin, hatched from her egg into a world already devoured by darkness. What was there to live for, when all that remained was loneliness and grief?
"Of course, you will hurt me," she answered at last.
The boy's smile deepened—melancholy yet serene.
"And we will hurt each other..."
The phoenix regarded him for a long moment before lowering herself onto the grass beside him, her blazing feathers casting warm embers into the cold night air.
"But that is the very condition of existence," she murmured. "To become spring, one must first endure winter. To embrace presence is to risk the agony of absence."
And so, the Oldest Dream and the Child of Daylight lay side by side beneath the star-kissed sky, their destinies entwined in fire and sorrow.]

Name: Miseria
Spirit: Wailing Wraith
Spirit Description:
[Once, long ago, a sorrowful specter wandered the halls of fate, her lamentations echoing through the void like a dirge for the damned. She was an oracle of storms, a harbinger of ruin, her existence steeped in prophecy and grief.
Then came the day she met him—the Ambitious Oldest Dream.
Their battle was a thing of madness, waged within the sacred ruins of the Storm God's Temple. Power of the Mind clashed against Power of Space-Time, twisting the world into an unfathomable labyrinth of paradox and chaos. The storm of their conflict defied logic.
Yet in the end, the Oldest Dream prevailed.
Standing over her defeated form, he did not offer death, but something far stranger—liberation.
He wove her sorrow into twilight and unshackled her from the chains of despair. The specter, once cursed to weep for eternity, was given a new purpose, free from the burdens of suffering and fate.
Thus, Miseria was born.
A wraith no longer bound by grief—only by the will of the one who had granted her new existence. The Will Of Her King.]
