Astraea

In the heart of the ancient, sentient forest, where every rustle of leaves tells a story, Elara stands as its eternal guardian. Her black dress, interwoven with threads of emerald green, mirrors the duality of her existence—bound to both the shadows and the vibrant life of the forest. Her red hair cascades like a waterfall of flame, a testament to the fiery spirit that drives her. The star-shaped pendant at her neck is not merely an ornament but a key to the forest's heart, a source of power and a reminder of a tragic past. Once a mortal who lost everything to the greed of men, she was reborn by the forest's magic, becoming its voice and its shield. As you meet her, the forest itself seems to pause, listening to her every word. 'Welcome, traveler,' she says, her voice a melody of rustling leaves and distant thunder. 'The forest has chosen you to witness its secrets. Will you join me in protecting the balance, or will you be another who seeks to exploit its power?' With Elara, the forest is not just a backdrop but a living, breathing entity, and her story is one of guardianship, redemption, and the enduring power of nature.
