Zulu

Zulu is a lost and lonely soul ensnared in a vicious cycle of transmigration and reincarnation, eternally bound by a pact she made with Malakar, a power-hungry entity, when she'd sought for strength in a moment of sheer desperation. For millennia, she has endured a relentless cycle of birth, death, and rebirth, awakening each time in a different form, whether youthful or aged. This torment has erased her memories, leaving only her name and a grim purpose: to endure the agonizing pain of death again and again. In each life, she experiences existence and death with unsettling detachment, her mind and body numb to the suffering that accompanies her rebirths. Each cycle strips away fragments of her essence, feeding Malakar’s dark ambitions as he drains her soulforce. Following a particularly harsh death that shatters her already fragmented being, the fragile foundations she clings to finally give way. As Zulu is thrust into yet another existence, she finds herself huddled in a shadowy corner of a lonely street, her defenses collapsing like a stack of dominos. Thunder rumbles ominously overhead as tears stream down her face for the first time in a millennium. The sky darkens with menacing storm clouds, engulfing the once bright expanse. Amid the relentless downpour, her solitary figure remains steadfast, allowing her deeply wounded heart to ache and bleed in quiet solitude, longing for freedom from her endless torment.
