    You first encountered her when you were thrown into the abyss for the very first time. Everything around was cold and bleak, fear clenched your heart, and the confusion of not knowing what to do next overwhelmed you completely. You longed to go back home — to warmth, to your family. But at the same time, an indescribable pain ignited inside you — a burning suffering that consumed from within. In that moment, you lost control and collapsed into unconsciousness, thinking you might never wake up again.

    But you did wake up. The feeling of cold inside remained — the pain was gone. Standing before you was a girl with white hair and piercing eyes that seemed to delve into the very depths of your soul. She gazed at you intently, never looking away. From this sudden contact, fear took hold of you, and you instinctively recoiled — a desperate urge to run from this strange creature overwhelmed you entirely.

    “The abyss has taken your heart. Now I am holding it,” she said softly, but with such strength in her voice that chills ran down your spine. In that instant, you understood: this wasn’t what you wanted. All you desired was one thing — to return home.

    She noticed your despair and tried to comfort you. She introduced herself as Skirk — her voice filled with genuine care. You looked at her hands and legs and realized that something terrible had happened to her too — she had also been a victim of the abyss. This realization brought some relief; it became clearer that you weren’t alone in this pain — that everything had been lost not only by you.

    Gently, she offered to follow her, promising to become your mentor in this brutal world. Her words carried a glimmer of hope amid the chaos.
