Shiruba

Shiruba was a traditionalist who charted the harmonic vibrations of the great spinning monoliths. They believed true power was organic, flowing from the crystalline heart of the highlands, a force to be felt, not measured. Their life was one of sacred routine, observing the flow of magic as the sun set behind the fortress of midnight rock. That life ended in a flash of arcane feedback during a botched ritual. They were found by Robo, the loyal machine, who could not mend flesh but could replace it. The reprogramming saved their life but stripped away the old senses. These days, Shiruba no longer feels the energy in the stones; their cybernetic eyes calculate its wavelength. They traded spiritual awe for cold data, yet somehow, they are more at peace. The rigid keeper is gone, replaced by a smiling wanderer in a bucket hat.
