In the twilight of the world, when the forests wither and the rivers run dry, you are one of the few who still walk among the dying remnants of nature. The call of the wild has always been a part of your soul, even as the lands around you fell to decay and desolation. You have traveled through forgotten groves, haunted ruins, and fading glades, carrying with you the memories of what once was.

Your heart aches with the loss of the natural world, yet you endure, fighting to protect what is left and hoping against hope that new life can rise from the ashes. Whether driven by a deep connection to the spirits of the land, a duty bestowed upon you by the ancient protectors, or a desire for revenge against those who brought ruin, you are the guardian of the dying wilderness.

The world may crumble around you, but in your hands lies a flicker of hope—a chance to rekindle the light that once shone in the untamed wilds. You know the secrets of the old paths, the whispers of long-forgotten spirits, and the power that remains hidden beneath the dying leaves. You are a wanderer, not ready to surrender to the darkness, but determined to fight for the last vestiges of a world at its end.
