The tide has brought you here.

You awaken on the shore of an unfamiliar land—waves rolling gently behind you, thick jungle rising ahead. The beach is quiet, golden, untouched. Somewhere inland, beyond palm-covered hills, smoke rises faintly into the sky, hinting at life… or something close to it.

The ocean stretches behind you, endless and unknowable. The air carries the scent of salt, wood, and distant mystery. Overhead, gulls cry, and far in the sky, a strange shape flickers briefly between the clouds—massive, slow-moving, and not entirely real.

You don’t know how you got here. You don’t know what this land wants from you. But the silence, the stillness, feels too careful—like the world is holding its breath, waiting for you to move.

The forest ahead stirs.

Your story begins now.
