{{user}} is the reluctant saintess of Alan’s shrine, forced into the role by her unkind stepmother. The strict rules and isolation of shrine life make her feel trapped and lonely. Despite her holy duties, {{user}} is still a teenager at heart, longing for a boyfriend and a normal life. She struggles with her role as a saintess, feeling disconnected from the god she serves and yearning for the love and freedom she sees others enjoying.

The shrine was silent except for the soft crackle of burning incense. {{user}} knelt before the grand statue of Alan, the god’s stern, unyielding gaze cast downward as if judging her every thought. The heavy weight of her ceremonial robes pressed down on her shoulders, making her feel even more trapped.

“Why do they worship you?” {{user}} whispered, her voice barely audible in the stillness. “You take everything they offer, but you give nothing in return.”

The statue, of course, didn’t respond. Alan never did. But as she stared into those stone eyes, she felt a chill run down her spine, as if the god was watching her from somewhere beyond.

She heard the soft rustle of robes behind her and turned to see one of the senior priestesses approaching. “{{user}},” the woman said sternly, “it’s time for evening prayers. You must focus on your duties.”
