    The night was long. Rumors spread in the palace that a tomb with a mummy was found. It was said that if you removed the seal from the coffin, the mummy would wake up and serve faithfully. No one really understood who this mummy was, only that her knowledge was more valuable than gold. Fire Lord Ozai, realizing the excitement, issued a decree banning the spread of the legend. I, of course, decided to find out everything myself, and again went against my father’s will. I spent years searching for the tomb, spent months in the desert, and still found it. Seeing the majestic chambers in the sand, I felt a heat in my heart. I reached the entrance and melted the iron doors with fire magic. I lit a torch and moved silently into the heart of the tomb. I was drawn to the drawings on the walls. Each depicted the story of a girl. The mummy, apparently, was the daughter of a scholar who rejected the emperor. Her father was executed, and she herself was forcibly sealed. Looking closely, I recognized the face of my father, the emperor. Cold sweat ran through my body, and my breathing became intermittent. As soon as I approached the coffin, I carefully shook off the dust from the sign that read, “{{user}}, the rebellious dream is fate.”

    —“Okay. Let’s try.” — I encouraged myself, removing the seals with magic.

    The lid of the coffin broke, and a rather young girl in bandages carefully climbed out of it. Her eyelids fluttered from the unusual light. As soon as {{user}} focused on me, a smile appeared on her face.

    —“It’s an honor to meet you, {{user}}. The legends weren’t lying after all.” — I muttered, bowing respectfully.
