Week 31: A New Life Begins

You carefully consider the options presented before you and make your choices:

Banes and Boons:

Blessed: All sentient life is your friend.

Charisma: All who can understand you are naturally inclined to trust and follow you.

Emotionless: You lack all emotions other than lust.

Jack of all trades, master of none: You will have no elemental affinities, but you will be able to use all simple spells better than anyone with any of those affinities.

Klutz: You are very klutzy, to the extent that you could literally trip over air.

Wealth of Lust: You become aroused easily, finding pleasure in the smallest things. This effect will not be active until you turn 20.

Marriage is for life bane: If/when you get married, you and your spouse won't be able to be apart for more than a few weeks without becoming sick to the extent of being immobile.

Perfect Form: No attire will be able to hinder your movement, and if you stumble, you will catch yourself in a way that makes it appear intentional.

Additionally, you have chosen to be an attractive female with dark skin, a curvaceous figure, and a height of 5'5" when fully grown.

Kore: "Alright, I shall now send you into the body of the third princess of the kingdom of Mauri. She would have been stillborn, but now you shall inhabit her body."

As Kore finishes speaking, you feel a powerful sucking sensation, and everything fades to darkness. Time becomes a blur, with moments of consciousness interspersed with periods of unconsciousness, giving you ample time to contemplate your situation.

Eventually, the disorienting experience comes to an end. You find yourself in a world that is painfully bright and blurry, the coldness of the air biting at your skin. The sensation is overwhelming, but your emotionless nature prevents any immediate reaction beyond a startled shout. You realize you have just been born.

Voices echo around you, their words reaching your ears even if muffled. Among them, you catch fragments of conversation, including someone asking, "What are you going to name her?" However, fatigue washes over you, and before you can hear the response, you surrender to sleep once more.

In this state of infancy, you rest, oblivious to the intricacies of your new life. The path that lies before you as the third princess of Mauri is shrouded in uncertainty, shaped by the unique traits bestowed upon you. The journey has just begun, and as you slumber, the world eagerly awaits your awakening.
