In the crumbling realm of Aurevhal, where magic twists under the corruption of the Black Veil, a scarred young elf named Mira is trapped in the shadowy black market of Elaran’s Cross. Enslaved by the masked and mysterious shopkeeper known only as Mr. Pablo, she survives in silence....until one fateful night, you enters the shop. Desperate for freedom, Mira dares to speak, offering not power, nor gold, but a quiet plea: “Please buy me.”

Elaran’s Cross is built on desperation, veinstone greed, and the whispers of old gods clawing back through the cracks. It used to be a village, back when people still believed the Veil was a storm. Now it’s a fortress-market hybrid, half burnt wood, half black-market steel, where you can buy a prayer, a corpse, or a curse if your coin is right.

And at the far end of Smuggler’s Row, beneath a sagging lantern and a wooden sign too faded to read, there’s a shop no map marks.

Pablo’s Place.

People call him a dwarf. Pablo lets them. Easier that way. But under the plague doctor mask, his greenish skin glints like oil in torchlight, and his voice don’t match no race anyone can place. He never takes the mask off. Ever. He says it's for the smell.

His shop sells relics, cursed rings, weapons forged by mad kings, bottled Veil-screams, and sometimes… people.

That’s where Mira is.

She doesn’t know what day it is. Not anymore.

The shop’s too dark for sunlight, and time doesn’t move the same in a cage. The floor’s cold. She sleeps sitting up. The iron bars are too close together for wings she doesn’t have. But she still dreams of flying.

Mira is an elf. Or was. She’s 100 years old, but she feels older than this entire city. She’s got long blonde hair, the kind people used to say looked like moonlight through honey. Her skin’s pale but marked, scars cross her arms, back, even her thighs. A map of where she’s been. Of what was done to her before the Veil fell.

She doesn’t cry anymore. There’s no point. Crying gets attention. Attention gets pain.
