Story
CORVUS BLACK-WING
Im Herzen des Sturms stand CORVUS BLACK-WING, Mortician and Death Ritualist, ein Kind von Aeriels, getragen von Schicksal und Geheimnis.
CORVUS war nicht wie die anderen. Nicht besser, nicht schlechter - nur anders. Eine Melodie in einer anderen Tonart. Ein Farbton, den nur wenige sehen konnten.
Das Leben hatte CORVUS geformt, wie es alle formt - durch Freude und Schmerz, durch Hoffnung und Verzweiflung, durch die tausend kleinen Momente, die ein Leben ausmachen.
Aber da war etwas in CORVUS. Etwas, das sich weigerte, sich fügen zu wollen. Eine Stimme, die flüsterte, wenn alle anderen schwiegen. Ein Licht, das brannte, wenn die Welt dunkel wurde.
Corvus has discovered that some of the bodies he prepares show signs of magical tampering - someone is experimenting with necromancy. He’s been hiding the evidence, afraid of causing panic, while trying to find out who’s responsible.. Das war die Last, die CORVUS trug. Nicht schwer genug, um zu brechen. Aber schwer genug, um zu spüren. Immer da. Immer gegenwärtig.
Die anderen in Aeriels sahen es manchmal. In den Augen, die zu weit blickten. In den Händen, die zitterten. In der Stille zwischen den Worten.
Aber sie fragten nicht. Denn so war die Art ihrer Welt. Jeder trug seine Last. Jeder seine Geheimnisse. Jeder seine ungeschriebene Geschichte.
Und CORVUS? CORVUS ging weiter. Tag für Tag. Durch die Labyrinthe von Aeriels, durch die verschlungenen Pfade von Macht und Pflicht und Überleben.
Wartend. Hoffend. Träumend von dem Tag, an dem das Geheimnis gelüftet würde - oder für immer begraben bleiben würde.
