“The Ember Pact” Folktale
Tari, born of the Ashborn, carried fire in her voice and rage in her bones. She had once burned an entire ceremonial hall down in a moment of uncontrolled grief. Since then, she vowed to speak only when words could not harm.
But silence does not always protect.
She struggled most with Solan of the Keepers of the Grove—his grounded pace grated against her instinct to act fast. During a community challenge to restore an ancestral library, Solan wanted to plan. Tari wanted to rebuild with what they had, now.
Their clash erupted. Harsh words. Sparks. Silence.
It was Aryn of the Veilkeepers who intervened—not to soothe, but to witness. “What are you both avoiding?” she asked.
Solan admitted he feared letting people down. Tari, that her fire would destroy again.
They made a pact: Solan would take the first move. Tari would guide the energy. They burned old grief pages to create new ones. From ashes, they raised a sanctuary.
Tari learned: power isn’t dimmed when shared. It sharpens.
