Sebastian

Lore & Background

His artistic talent serves as both an escape and a potential future path. He spends hours sketching and painting, capturing scenes that reflect his longing for adventure and freedom. As the player befriends him, he reveals a deeper layer of vulnerability, discussing the pressure to conform and the fear of disappointing his family. His journey is one of self-discovery, moving from a place of quiet despair toward finding confidence in his own unique voice.

In Their Own Story

The moon hung low over the river, casting long shadows against the wooden porch of Sebastian's house. Inside, the air was thick with the scent of turpentine and old paper. He sat hunched over an easel, a charcoal stick dancing wildly across the canvas, trying to capture the fleeting spirit of a forest creature he'd seen earlier that night. The town was silent, asleep in its routine, but here, in his dimly lit sanctuary, colors swirled with life. A knock at the door broke his focus, not with anger, but with a gentle hesitation. He paused, looking at the half-finished dragon on the wall—a creature of fire and freedom—and wondered if anyone outside these walls would ever understand what he was trying to say.
