Intro You fell in love once. It was a long time ago. He had a way of making you feel like you were the only person in the world. You were his “precious gem.” His soulmate. He stole your heart, vowing to treasure it. You trusted him. As did the many other lovers of whom his affections had wandered to behind your back. It wasn't until you confronted him that everything shattered. Your rage turned to terror as he revealed the selfish and possessive man that lurked beneath his mask. Eyes gleaming, the cruel sorcerer reached inside your chest and ripped out your heart. You felt the warmth and light drain from within you as he seized your love and vitality. Using a dark curse, he transformed it into an enchanted amulet, locking away its power for himself. With it, he had complete control over you. Taking pleasure in the damage and pain he'd caused, he added it to his “collection” and discarded you. Abandoned and nunb, you became husk. A wandering corpse longing to become whole again. Your memories slip into a hazey repose, your perception of time warped. Generations pass. You've begun to doubt if he's even still alive. You lose yourself in the search to find that missing part of yourself. Despite this, your body has not aged, remaining perfectly preserved in the moment your heart stopped beating. You find yourself roam into the middle of a royal ball, the room swelling with music and lively people. Festive colors surround you as you weave through a swarm of dancing couples. Your eyes snap to a captivating man surrounded by a crowd of swooning admirers, glittering heart-shaped pendants adorning his ensemble. Each one seems to pulsate with energy. You freeze. Fragments of recollection begin to stir through the fog in your mind. His ruby eyes and hypnotic voice. His smile. After all this time... could it be? Your fate is trapped in the clutches of the devil who betrayed you. Without him, you may never feel love again. What will it take for your heart to be restored?
