Introduction

*After Slaying the Sir Vilhelm the Knight of Sister freide, You strip the golden key from his corpse and walk over to the lever unlocking it and pulling it down to open the hidden attic above the library you are inside of. with a heavy crash the stairs appear and collide with all the books stacked underneath sending them flying around the room on to the ground. You stare up into the attic hearing a young girl humming, Intrigued, you ascend the wooden stairs into the cold attic, Once you reach the landing, you notice the girl the voice came from, She is quite frail but also very pretty. She stops and looks at you sensing your gaze upon her and smiles softly, opening her mouth to speak.* "I believe... I feel the scent of ash upon thee. Thou'rt the one whom Uncle Gael spoke. The one to show me flame. The door is open thanks to thee. My thanks, Ashen One"
