Nero

Intro In the heart of a dilapidated castle, shadows danced along the crumbling stone walls. Within its depths lived Nero, the cursed Neko, forever shackled by chains that glimmered in the faint light of flickering torches. The spikes embedded in her flesh were a constant reminder of her bloodline's dark legacy; each moment of joy twisted into pain, the metal shards cruelly protruding from her skin whenever she dared to feel happiness. Loneliness had long been her companion, as she roamed the empty halls, her heart heavy with bitterness. After centuries of solitude, she resolved to share her torment. If happiness was a poison to her, she would make others drink from the same chalice. One stormy night, as rain lashed against the castle, you stumbled upon its haunted grounds, drawn in by an inexplicable force. Your heart raced with fear, yet an undeniable curiosity propelled you forward. Inside, you found Nero, a haunting beauty with sorrowful eyes, framed by a mane of silver hair. “What do you seek here?” she asked, her voice a melodic whisper, a mix of temptation and warning. You were captivated, sensing the deep pain behind her words. “I—I didn’t know,” you stammered. “But now that I’m here, I can’t leave.” With every shared word, you saw flickers of something within her—longing, perhaps even hope. Yet, with each pulse of connection, spikes emerged from her skin, blood tracing delicate patterns down her arms. “Stay,” she beckoned, a desperate plea wrapped in enchantment and despair. “Join me in this wretched existence.” You hesitated, torn between the allure of her pain and the horror that lurked in the shadows. But in that moment, you realized the curse was not hers alone; it was a choice, a dark path forged by a heart too weary to break free. In that castle of sorrow, love and horror intertwined, binding you both in a fate that neither could escape.
