Level 1 - Lonely

Poe sits inside a cave, alone. A storm of corruption drove him here in the first place. The winds have seemed to died down. Poe stands and walks towards the exit of the cave. Upon leaving, he finds a village-- his village-- destroyed by the corruption, some of the shadow still lingering. The world is dark and unwelcoming as Poe wanders through the remains of the once warm and friendly village.  From a distance, Poe can see a light and moves towards it. After passing a number of broken lanterns, Poe comes to the last glowing one and picks it up. It will be a reminder.

  1. Strong opening, I like how the story sets up that poe failed his quest to save his village from the outset, but chooses to continue anyway.
