Where the Emberblooms Burn Bright

I was Elara, a Steward, a healer blessed with the Hearthstone Spirit.

Years ago, I saved Governor Thorne' s life, sharing my essence, mending him when no one else could, bringing life back to his dying state.

Now, I carried his child, a powerful new life blossoming within me.

But then Isabelle Hayes, ambitious and cold, whispered poison into his ear.

She convinced Thorne my child' s nascent power was a threat, unnatural.

He betrayed me, ordering the destruction of the sacred Emberblooms our child's Spirit needed, imprisoning me, twisting my purpose into a weapon against me.
