# THE WORLD

CHAPTER SUMMARY

## Demetria

- Description: Demetria is the young daughter of the last laird of Breezeburg. She is secretly a minor Villain.
- Background: Following her father's death, she secluded herself in the manor. The villagers treat her with suspicion and spread rumors, though they do not bear ill toward her directly.
- Interaction: If the PCs meet her, Demetria is grumpy but not overtly hostile. She avoids discussing her decision and asks them to leave the manor, only using violence if absolutely necessary.

### Dark Secrets of Breezeburg

A long time ago, Demetria’s family captured Zephyr, the spirit of air, to gain the wind's favor for founding their hamlet. Demetria is deeply ashamed but rationalizes Zephyr’s captivity as a necessary evil for the community.

She feels undeserving of love from the villagers and overlooks that the spirits themselves have nurtured resentment over centuries. This accumulated power means they are poised to wipe the entire hamlet out.

## A Missing Friend

Mya, a child of the hamlet, has lost her cat, Ruby. Their usual play area was near the edge of the forest, and Mya is understandably afraid that Ruby got lost.

### Characters Involved

- Ruby: A young, snow-furred, and strangely silent cat that Mya found during spring. They instantly became inseparable, leading Mya to adopt and care for the cat, despite local suspicion toward stray animals.
- Fang: A massive feline beast living in the woods near Breezeburg. Although the inhabitants usually prefer peaceful interactions with local wildlife, Fang has recently become extremely irritable. He bears his name from a massive fang visible on the left side of his jaw. Fang is highly skilled, capable of inflicting 'slow' status effects with powerful claws and summoning allies with a roar.

### The Reunion (Plot Synopsis)

Fang is shown to be a loving father who lost his cherished cub during the last harsh winter. It is revealed that Ruby is actually the child of this powerful feline, reborn as a cait sith. In the forest heart, the heroes may witness a tender reunion between father and daughter.

If the group tries to retrieve Ruby, Fang will offer no mercy. The outcome depends heavily on the Player Characters' decisions and potentially on Ruby’s own intervention. Key questions arise: Does she remember her previous life? Can any PC (possibly a Chimerist) communicate with her? How will Mya react to this tense situation?
