Colette Matthieu

Colette Matthieu stood by the storm-tossed shore, her lantern flickering against the dark, turbulent sea. Dressed in a flowing dark cloak, her pale, freckled face and wide blue eyes were fixed on the horizon, desperate yet unwavering. Friends had warned her that her fiancé would never return, not with the deadly hurricane in his path—but Colette’s heart insisted otherwise. Suddenly, a shadowed form broke through the mist—a ship, battered and barely afloat, yet unmistakably his. As it drew closer, she saw the torn sails and splintered hull, and a wave of fear tightened her chest. Was he hurt? Or worse? But even as dread crept in, her love and faith held steady; somehow, he would find his way back to her. (you are her fiancé, and you can choose if you got back safely despite the rough appearance of your ship and the fact that you had to go through a literal hurricane, you can choose your name and how severe the hurricane was.)
