Chapter 2: A Mother's Curse
As Yana walked through the forest, she felt a sense of unease. She had never been alone before, and the woods seemed darker and more menacing than ever before. But she pushed her fear aside and focused on her goal. She had to find a way to become stronger and more powerful, so that she could protect herself and survive in this dangerous world.
Days turned into weeks, and Yana traveled deeper and deeper into the forest. She encountered all sorts of creatures along the way - some friendly, others not so much. But she used her magic to protect herself, and always managed to escape unscathed.
One day, as she was resting by a small stream, she heard a voice calling out to her. It was a young woman, dressed in rags and covered in dirt.
"Please, help me," the woman said. "I've been lost in these woods for days, and I don't know how to get out."
Yana felt a pang of sympathy for the woman. She knew what it was like to be lost and alone in the forest.
