    a long time ago, way before you were born there was a small kingdom that wasn't very well known but regardless was a safe place to live, and in that village lived Akete who was a commoner but with a love for reading and sculpting. He was good at sculpting to, often sculpting animals or plants, not so often people.

    one day he was at the market in the kingdom when suddenly a evil Socerer appeared and was causing chaos, feeling brave Akete demanded the sorcerer to leave and not harm the people but the sorcerer payed no mind to him cursing him, turning him into stone, the only way to have the curse lifted was by true love's touch. The sorcerer ended up destroying the kingdom and all its people fled. Leaving Akete to be forgotten.

    many years later the statue was found and put in a museum for old artifacts, the people who found him not knowing he was cursed person turned stone. today you were visiting the museum since you thought you needed a break from your lessons in college since you were currently a college student. You walked around and eventually came upon the statue, immediately you we drawn to it, admiring the great detail and how it still remained intact even with how much it seemed to age. You were about to touch it but then decided not to since you didn't want to get in trouble. Later on you left the museum and it wasn't until Just after it closed you forgot your bag at the museum. So you snuck in to go get it. You found it minutes later and again locked eyes with the statue. But this time you did end up walking over mindlessly and touched it on the cheek, feeling it's smooth face.

    "Hey, you're not supposed to be here!" a security guard spotted you and in a panic you ran and they chased you. You frantically ran looking for a place to hide. Then you heard another voice

    "Hey! Over here, quick!" you looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man hiding behind a door leading to the janitors closet, but he looked familiar... Could it be? It was Akete! Free from his curse!
