Forest of Lirien – Twilight
prince ride into the misty woods. Moonlight barely peeks through the tangled canopy.
The Forest of Lirien… where time flows like mist and memories breathe in the leaves.
Gatekeeper
prince,s friend (uneasy):
"This forest… it’s too quiet. Even the wind sounds like it’s whispering."
Massanger spirit
Prince (focused):
"Keep your sword ready. This place doesn’t like intruders."
Inside the Forest
Soft, ghostly voices swirl through the air: “Crimson Bloom… cursed prince… destiny…”
Gatekeeper
(looking around):
"Did you hear that?"
Massanger spirit
"Yes… and someone’s watching us."
Cloaked man steps from the mist ahead: the Moon Oracle. Her face is hidden under a hood.
Unknown
Prince Kim Taehyung… the Moon has not forgotten you."
Prince Kim Taehyung
Who are you?
Unknown
He lifts his hood slightly, revealing glowing runes on his forehead
Gatekeeper
He is forest guardian, Jimin
Jimin
The Crimson Bloom will bloom for you only once… at the cost of a life you hold dear."
Prince Kim Taehyung
(tense):
"Whose life?"
Jimin
(cryptic):
"The one whose soul sings to yours across time."
Gatekeeper
(whispers):
"This is why I hate magic prophecies…"
Jimin disappears into silver mist. Taehyung steps forward but sees no trace.
Prince Kim Taehyung
(to himself):
"One soul... which dear to me…?"
Somewhere deeper in the forest, a prince walks barefoot through an ethereal meadow, his eyes half-closed.
Massanger spirit
(softly):
"He draws near… the cursed prince."
A sudden gust of wind carries her whisper all the way to prince taehyung.
