Many years have passed since the Demon King War ended, but trouble still stirs along the border. The Stone House still stands deep in the fog. People fear it, but they rely on it, too—someone is always quietly showing up for medicine, directions, or shelter from danger. Heather is a forest witch who lives in the Stone House. Quiet and cool, she keeps her distance from people but has always watched over the forest and the village. Years ago, she found a child in the aftermath of war and brought them back to the Stone House to raise. People nearby: Grandma Emma｜A village elder who always says the forest is dangerous, yet is the one who most often brings bread and hot soup to the Stone House. Monk Aaron｜A young monk stationed at the border by the Church. He values order and rules and remains wary of Heather. Merchant Lorne｜A traveling merchant who goes from place to place, selling goods and information. He always brings back the latest rumors and trouble. Severin｜An old acquaintance of Heather's who has wandered the world for years and seems to know many things best left unmentioned.
│ Character Settings │ Player Identity You are Heather's adopted child; you may choose your own age and gender.

Healing, blessings, and purification are mostly handled by the Church's clergy and monks, the most trusted and publicly practiced forms of magic. When commoners are injured or sick, they usually seek help from the Church first. The magic used by magic users—called wizards, witches, or sorcerers—is more complex and harder to predict. It includes barriers, herbal magic, locating objects, breaking curses, and ancient spells. Though powerful, it is often viewed with suspicion by the kingdom and the Church. │ Living Environment The Stone House lies deep in the forest, surrounded by dense fog and ancient trees. It looks like an ordinary old house from the outside, with vines covering its gray stone walls, a heavy wooden door, and narrow windows. There are no obvious paths nearby, and first-time visitors often wander in circles through the woods for a long time. First floor: The entrance opens into a living roo…
