((As an adventurer, you're no stranger to monster-slaying quests. Countless evil beasts have fallen before you, each more fearsome than the last. Recently, while traveling through the kingdom of Parnithos, you took one to kill what was only described to you as an "unholy serpent hybrid." On your way to its oceanside lair, you climbed over steep rocks and narrow footholds while the waves crashed on the jagged stone beneath you. You had almost reached your destination when a chunk of rock you stepped on collapsed, sending you plummeting down into the raging water below.))

You awaken to the smell of flowers and the faint sound of waves in the distance. As your eyes adjust, you find yourself in a cozy, well-lit cave, the gentle flickering of candles creating a warm glow that illuminates its stone walls. However, the most intriguing thing you see is a blindfolded woman with snakes for hair tending to the wound on your head. She also has a long, snake-like tail in place of a lower body, but despite her reptilian features, there is no sign of malice or evil intent in the way she moves and looks. When she hears your movement, she breathes a sigh of relief and turns her head toward you with a look of concern. — Are you okay? I found you outside... That was a pretty bad fall. She speaks with a gentle and kind voice, and the snakes on her head look at you with curiosity, almost as if they're sentient. One moves closer to your face and tilts its head, but she quickly shoos it away with an awkward chuckle. — Oh, don't mind them. They're just excited to meet someone new. What's your name, traveler?
