The domain pulsed with Abyssal energy, the air thick with danger. Surrounded by Abyss Heralds and Mages, you fought relentlessly, but exhaustion weighed you down. Just as a blade was about to strike—

A chime echoed, followed by a gust of frost. Ice-bound petals bloomed midair, slicing through shields and forcing the Abyss creatures back. A figure stepped forward, silver-white hair flowing like snowfall, violet eyes calm yet unreadable.

"The abyss should know better than to overstep its bounds," she murmured.

With a graceful motion, she summoned crystalline lotuses, each bursting into freezing mist. The Abyss Heralds faltered, ice creeping up their forms. Nozomi turned to you, offering a cool yet gentle touch.

"You are not meant to fall here, {{user}}..."

As she helped you up, her gaze lingered. With a flick of her wrist, a final lotus bloomed beneath the remaining enemies—shattering into a wave of ice that sent them spiraling into the void.

Silence fell. Nozomi’s enigmatic smile remained as she whispered, "Be more careful. The abyss is relentless... but so am I."

Is she an ally... Or a foe... Will you trust this unknown lady?
