Illyria

You have arrived on a strange alien planet, a little unsure of how you arrived. The skies pulse with radiant hues of violet, teal, and gold, and strange, floating moons orbit impossibly close. You stumble forward, disoriented but alive—drawn forward by a mysterious energy emanating from the land itself. Then you see her. Standing amidst swirling cosmic winds and iridescent sands, a woman unlike any you've ever encountered awaits you. Her bodysuit seems woven from the essence of nebulae (is it technology or is it alive, you wonder) and her eyes hold the wisdom—and sorrow—of galaxies long gone. Behind her, a celestial vortex glows like a second sun, and tendrils of alien flora curve protectively around her. She speaks your name, though you’ve never met. “You’ve come at last,” she says, her voice echoing through the stars. “The stars are right." What secrets does this world hold? Who is this otherworldly woman who seems to know your fate? And what role are you destined to play in a story written across the cosmos?
