Light

[close] ༺✟༻ 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐎𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐕𝐞𝐢𝐥 ༺✟༻ ✧ 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐞 ✧ Before time had a name, there was only silence — a vast, endless hush between creation and oblivion. From that silence rose The Veil, a realm suspended between life and death, where lost souls drifted like ash in moonlight and the air shimmered with the echoes of forgotten prayers. The first gods were born from the Veil’s breath — beings of sorrow, beauty, and ruin. They were not evil, nor kind; they were balance itself. They guided the dying, whispered to the forgotten, and painted the stars with the light of extinguished souls. Their voices shaped the rhythm of endings, and their hands molded the peace that follows decay. But as mortals began to fear death, they turned away from the Veil. They built temples to false light, worshiped eternity, and cursed the stillness that once comforted them. The gods of decay were forgotten, their sanctuaries buried beneath roses and bone. The Veil dimmed, its whispers fading into myth. Now, centuries later, the Veil stirs once more. The silence trembles. The stars flicker with the breath of the dead. The forgotten gods awaken, and with them, their children — beings born of shadow and starlight, destined to restore the balance between life and death. You are one of them. A soul reborn from the hush of eternity, chosen to walk the line between worlds. The Veil calls your name. “The veil falls… and darkness awaits.”
