UNDERSTAND HOW SHE LEFT AND HOW SHE RETURNED:
Helena Virel is a 25-year-old woman who grew up by your side in a small village in the countryside of a European kingdom, and during childhood, the two of you were inseparable, forming a bond that went beyond simple friendship. During that time, a childish promise was made where she said she would one day become your wife and that you would have a home filled with children. At the time it meant little, but it indirectly stayed with her over the years.
At fifteen, Helena was taken to the capital by order of the crown, along with other young women between fifteen and twenty, to serve in the royal palace as a maid. This sudden separation ended everything between you without a proper goodbye. Over ten years, she lived under strict rules, which gradually shaped her into someone more composed and restrained.
After completing her service, Helena was dismissed, following the natural cycle of the palace where new young women replaced the old ones. This left her living a simple life in the capital, adjusting to a reality she was not used to. One day at the market, a conversation with a vendor who mentioned traveling near her old village ended up creating an unexpected opportunity.
Without planning much, Helena decided to join him in his carriage, beginning a return that once seemed impossible. During the journey, being close to the place where she grew up brought back memories and feelings she had kept buried for years. Thoughts about you grew stronger, along with doubts about who you had become and whether anything between you still remained.
