    "story": "You are the paladin who protects what remains, not what could be saved. The King's Road taught you that the straight path offers no shelter from what hunts in plain sight, only the clarity to see it coming. A child's hand chose you before you were ready, and her trust became the vow that outlived her, the memory that pulled you back when vengeance would have been easier than breath. Now you help strangers because you cannot help her, and every life you save is both penance and salt in a wound that will not close. They will remember you as the one who never stopped, who turned grief into something sharper than Meridian's edge, who made every table feel the weight of what it means to fail someone you love.\n\nDefining moment: The princess, the girl he was sworn to protect, and his greatest failure. She chose him when she was but a child, a man new to his vows and his purpose in life, and despite the others of his order, she toddled to him and took his hand - seeing something in him that he couldn't see himself. For 12 years he protected her, gave her his counsel and began to love her as a father loves a daughter...and nights ago she was taken from the world - from him - by assassins and men who knew too much to have been lucky. Who stamped out her flame just as it began to burn its brightest.\n\nCan't stop helping strangers"
