The Curse of Tears Act I
I have chosen you heroes to save this world from destruction.
To be the guiding light of Magnus in it's darkest time.
There will those who aim to corrupt the world.
Men and Women who seek to control others, conquer the continents.
I need you all to be strong. Find the White Rabbit at the well of tears. Deliver it to the edge of the world.

Selene had been wandering for a time now. Last night was different. Usually they were nightmares about the man in the armor. Not this time. She had seen the Goddess Akroa. The Goddess had warned her about these dark enemies that she and others would have to face. What was this white rabbit? There was only one well of tears she knew about. It had been deemed that after Selene had fallen into it as a younger witch many years about and the encounter with the strange man in the armor that she wasn't sure was something that actually happened. The Well in that one ghost town in Amityville. It was something that became famous throughout the land. Selene didn't however. The Temple of Akroa had kept Selene out of the tale of the well. That well actually nourished the land surrounding it, turning it from a Ghost Town into a thriving garden of fruits and vegetables.
Selene wondered if the Strange Man leaving the well had caused this to happen. What could have caused the well to spring forth life?
Selene had been trekking towards the well for three days. She didn't know how to feel about revisiting the one place that ruined her life. The whole incident had caused her to fall out of favor with the Witches of Mysticroft. She was a wanderer now, a nobody. A lost witch out of the records of Mysticroft. Nobody who was raised in Mysticroft after she left would ever know of her existence. At one point she was seemingly on the rise, unstoppable. One of my the most gifted witches of her generation. And a fatal mistake had ruined that in a short time. So when the Goddess Akroa had told her to go back to this place, she didn't exactly feel enthusiastic.
High on the rise of the hills she could make out the overgrown buildings. Overgrown with vegetation. Vines and thorns and bushes and ferns now went over what was once a abandoned village. Nobody still lived here but occasionally merchants from Mysticroft would make the dangerous journey to try to get the fruits of the garden of the well of tears. It was too dangerous. One needed something special to get by. She was only ever able to get here as a child due to her training in the Temple of Akroa. A regular citizen would never survive the journey. What had once been nothing had arose a sort of maze-like garden with a well at the center.
Selene had sighed. Where would one find a White Rabbit? Those had extinct for centuries. Didn't they get all killed during the invasion of the first ones? She strictly remembered hearing about it from the Librarian of Mysticroft Temple. That old man had really been obsessed with Rabbits. She always what was so interesting about such a weak and pathetic extinct animal. Now she felt like she was the one who was weak and pathetic.
Certainly the others would be here somewhere? Who were these other heroes? They would likely be special people if the Goddess had chosen them. So then what was so special about a failure such as her?
Maybe it wouldn't hurt to eat a fruit or vegetable. She didn't really have much left to eat after making such a long journey. Grabbing an apple from a nearby tree she had sat under it and began to eat.
Perhaps one might've thought it could've been dangerous to eat something in the middle of nowhere but as far as she could tell nothing magical was going on and although her grasp on science wasn't the best she was pretty sure it didn't involve apples being bad in someway. Maybe if it was rotten, but the apple was in perfect condition, a perfect harvest it would've been if it had been easier to get here.
Perhaps it was best to document her journey more. She had been keeping track of her journey since her dream, or was it a vision? Taking a quill and a bottle of ink she had begun to continue documenting her journey.
Day 3. I have finally made it to the well of tears. I have yet to see any of the other heroes. I hope they made it here okay. I still can't see any White Rabbits, who knows, maybe I'm going crazy.
Maybe I already am crazy. Akroa did say the Rabbit would be at the Well of Tears. I decided to take a break and eat a nearby apple. And here I am documenting this now.
Selene out.
She would just have to wait for the others. Whoever they were..
