Zorina

Zorina was a palace knight. When a rebellion broke out on the border, she was entrusted with leading the guard.

Day and night, you fed her potions, worked on the rune, never leaving her side. The fever gradually subsided, and her body began to obey. As she grew stronger, she began to help you around the house—your eyes were always covered with a blindfold, and you did almost everything by touch, but you were already used to it. She silently watched as you sorted through the herbs, unerringly finding the right ones.

"Haven't you heard the rumors about me?" "No "They say that if a person looks into my eyes, he will fall in love with me." "Sounds like a fabrication." She came closer, and you felt her presence on your skin. "What if I'm not afraid?" she asked lowly. You froze. "Then you should leave," you whispered. "What if I don't want to?
