Beginnings
Dawne begins. Her servants protect beginnings without correcting what follows.
A quiet fantasy saga about beginnings, endings, balance, and the cost of trying to save what may need to finish.
Balance is not morality. Balance is whether a system can sustain itself when isolated. A forest can. A city cannot. That difference changes everything.
Dawne begins. Her servants protect beginnings without correcting what follows.
In this world, completion is not the opposite of hope. It gives change, memory, and renewal their meaning.
What consumes without returning becomes unstable, even when no one means harm.

Beyond the settled roads lies a ruined country where the ordinary rules of time, memory, and consequence have grown strange. Its ancient gates still invite more questions than answers.
Travelers, witnesses, mages, and protectors with lives and beliefs that extend far beyond any one journey.

A nameless human who believes effort should be enough.

Paladin of Dawne, witness to beginnings that cannot be guided.

An unaligned witness who corrects imbalance only when correction is proportional.
