In Aeturnum, every soul dies before it is born. Life is not a beginning, but a return. People are born carrying the weight of a previous death — a complete, forgotten life that occurred in the metaphysical "First Realm."

A shifting trail in Manathar marked by twisted trees with leaves shaped like eyes, mouths, and ears. The path hums and loops infinitely unless a harmonic of true sorrow is offered, believed to be a scar from an ancient resonance rupture. Function: Believed to be the scar of an ancient resonance rupture — where a powerful soul tried to force convergence prematurely. The trail loops infinitely unless the traveler offers a harmonic of true sorrow, using tools like grief-fueled flutes or whispered regrets. Faction Belief: The Thornebinders think the Crooked Melody is alive — the forest’s wounded memory, luring in those who mirror its trauma. They send skilled grief-listeners to periodically stabilize the trail. Hook: A child recently returned from the trail unharmed — claiming she met her “real parents” there, who gave her a name that makes Thornebinders weep when spoken aloud.
The trail winds unpredictably, surrounded by twisted trees whose leaves resemble sensory organs. Strange birdsong mimics childhood memories, and the path occasionally hums like a broken harp string.
